NB - On Category L machines, the needle threader cannot be used whilst this foot is on.
 
Gathering is a classic decorative technique. It's easy with this special foot which is especially useful for sewing flounces on cushions and curtains or gathered seams on children's clothing.
 
Stitch and gather simultaneously and gather two layers of fabric quickly and easily.
 
How to use:-
Set the machine for straight stitch with the needle in the left position.
Place fabric to be gathered under the presser foot with the cut edges extending slightly to the right of the presser foot. Insert non-gathering fabric fully into slot of foot. Fabrics should be right sides together.
Guide fabric, allowing machine to bottom fabric freely for uniform gathering.
TIP: Altering stitch length will alter fullness of gathers. A single layer of fabric may also be gathered by placing under foot and adjusting stitch length and tension to desired fullness.
