Did you know that there are sewing machine feet created just for piecing a quilt? These feet can help you achieve more accurate quarter-inch seams, which are the key to precise quilt blocks.
This is your basic sewing machine foot, the style that comes with every machine. It works fine for patchwork piecing but has no features that help with accurate seams.
As the name suggests, this foot has a large open area in the center of the foot. This is great for any patchwork task where you need a good view of what you are sewing.
This should be the perfect foot for patchwork piecing. Although it is an easy guide to see and provides a useful physical barrier, I don’t find these feet very accurate.
This foot has lots of red line markings, including ¼″ and ⅛″. Although there is no physical guide (like the flange feet), the red lines stand out well.
