Janome Even Feed Feet – Accessory of the Month December 2024

 

The even feed foot, sometimes referred to as the walking foot, is designed with a set of feed dogs (teeth) which allow the fabric to feed without shifting and eliminates the problems of the underlayer of fabric coming up short.

The even feed foot is great for quilt sandwiches, topstitching and stitching specialty fabrics.
