Part 1
Ever since I started sewing, I've been tempted to buy almost all the sewing accessories I've seen for my sewing machine (Juki HZL-27Z Electric Sewing Machine)!
Recently, I've been looking at the different presser feet which hold the promise of drastically improving your sewing skills just by using a different presser feet!
Only problem? I don't have a clue what they are or how to use them! Which is why I decided to sit down and do a little research. Specifically on this Embroidex 32 pieces Presser Feet Kit which was the perfect fit for my sewing machine!
This will be a 4 part series so I can highlight each presser feet properly!
1. Braiding Foot:
This is the easiest and fastest way to attach trim, yarn, ribbon, rick rack (flat narrow braid women in zigzag form, used as a trimming for clothing or curtains), and even elastic! You should use trim or elastic 5mm wide or less which is perfect for this foot.
How to use: Simply insert your trim or elastic through the front opening, pull a few inches past the back of the foot, and start sewing. Adjust the front screw to fit your trim and prevent any mistakes or imperfections.
