Choosing the Best Sewing Machine Foot for Freezer Paper Piecing
I thought there was only one perfect foot for freezer paper piecing and…I was already using it.
But I kept hearing my members suggest different feet to try. And then, when I was teaching at the Calico Cutters guild in Pennsylvania, I tried out a different foot. A big change-a-roo.
If you’re wondering which foot to use, watch this quick 7-minute video to hear the answer.
In the video, I demonstrate three different sewing machine feet. I start with a regular standard foot and work my way up to a walking foot and finally a stitch in the ditch foot. I explain the pros and cons of each foot and provides tips on when to use which foot. Plus, you’ll see the link to my free modern triangle class using these methods.
Watch for the sewing close-ups using freezer paper with each foot. You’ll see exactly what it looks like when your machine foot is in action.
