Free Motion Ruler Foot

The Free Motion Ruler Foot allows you to create beautiful free-motion quilting designs using ruler templates.

The perfectly circular foot lets you sew a consistent ¼" from the edge of your ruler template. Red markings indicate the centre of the foot for accurate alignment, while cut-outs at the front and side provide excellent visibility of the needle area.

• Loosen the presser foot ankle screw completely and remove the ankle.
• Position the Free Motion Ruler Foot around the presser bar and secure it with the screw.
• Thread the machine.
• Select a straight stitch.
• Set the machine to Free Motion Ruler Foot mode. The feed dogs will lower automatically. When lowered, you must guide the fabric manually.
• Place the fabric under the foot and lower the presser foot.
• Bring the bobbin thread to the top by taking one stitch. Hold both thread tails and sew a few stitches in place to secure the beginning.
• Position the ruler against the edge of the foot. Apply gentle pressure with your fingertips to keep the ruler steady while guiding the foot along its edge.
• Sew along the ruler. When you reach the end, stop the machine, lift the presser foot, reposition the ruler and continue stitching.
• Whenever you need to change direction, stop the machine, reposition the ruler and continue sewing as required.
