Playing With Some New Feet
My mom brought over a bunch of generic feet that work with Bob, the new Brother machine. That reminded me that I had bought a bunch of generic feet myself for Betty (the White) just before I bought Phoebe (the Pfaff). So I hauled them all out to see what would work and what wouldn't, and to play a little bit. This is a gathering foot. I really don't understand how this one works, and clearly I didn't have it working very well. It has a smooth underside that was hit and miss with whether it moved the fabric along or not. I don't know if my fabric was too slippery - it is a crepe. I would definitely need to play with this foot some more to get the hang of it. This foot is a binder attachment. It works with pre-folded binding. I have other feet to try that I think fold the binding for you but I'm not sure if this one does - I'll have to play some more. I used store-bought bias binding for this sample, and as you can see I missed...
