Utility Foot A for IDF System
Snapped onto the machine upon delivery. Used mainly for straight stitching and zigzag stitching
with a stitch length longer than 1.0mm.
Decorative Stitch Foot B
For sewing close zigzag stitches (satin stitches) with less than 1.0mm stitch length, other utility
stitches or decorative stitches, use this foot. The tunnel on the underside of the foot is designed
to feed smoothly over the stitches.
Buttonhole Foot C
For manual buttonholes. This foot has guidelines to determine buttonhole length. The middle
guideline measures ½" (12mm) from the needle position. The two tunnels on the underside of
the foot ensure smooth feeding over the buttonhole columns. The finger on the back of the foot
holds cording for corded buttonholes.
Blindhem Foot D
For blindhem stitches. The inner edge of this foot guides the fabric. The right toe of the foot is
designed to ride along the hem edge.
Zipper Foot E for IDF System
This foot can be snapped on either to the right or to the left of the needle. This makes it easy to
sew both sides of the zipper. Move needle position to the right or left to sew closer to zipper
teeth or for covering large cording.
Non-Stick Glide Foot H for IDF System
This foot, with a non-stick coating underneath, is used when sewing foam, vinyl, plastic, or
leather to keep these materials from sticking to the foot.
Edging Foot J for IDF System
Used for overcasting and seam/overcasting, with stitches that have a stitch width of 5.0 and
5.5mm. Stitches form over the pin which prevents puckering at the edge of the fabric.
Adjustable ¼" Foot for IDF System

from the needle. The hole in the foot is oval shaped allowing you to adjust the needle position
