Fabulous Foot Friday!

Today is Fabulous Foot Friday and I am going to share one of my new favorite feet. No, I am not going to share the feet attached to my legs. While I am very fond of these feet I want to share with you a really cool presser foot. I am loving my LEFT EDGE TOPSTITCHING FOOT.














I can stitch so close to the edge accurately it is fantastic. The red mark on the top corresponds to the edge of the grove on the bottom. The left side is thicker than the right side. While sewing you place the thicker side on the right so that it buts up to the thicker side. The bottom picture shows the foot in action. I love this for decorative topstitching, edgestitching, understitching, and stitching on the edge of a narrow hem. I know that I will find many other uses. I just love how it has made my stitching much more professional.

Note: This is a Viking foot. Ask your dealer to see if this foot (or something similar) is available for other machines. It has been well worth the money.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Until next time...

  4. I don't have a left-edgestitch foot, but I do have the right one. I just love it...it makes my topstitching come out great!

    Do you have Viking's THE FOOT BOOK? If not, get it--it's awesome with lots of uses for all the Viking presser feet.

    With friendship,
