• Professional Finish: Clean look on both inside and outside of garment

How the Felling Foot Works:

The felling foot features a flange and an underfoot groove that guide the fabric layers through a two-step folding process in a single pass of stitching. This automates the folding that would otherwise require careful manual folding and pressing, saving significant time while ensuring a consistent, professional finish. The foot maintains a consistent, set width for the finished seam (4mm or 6mm depending on size chosen), ensuring the second line of stitching is perfectly parallel to the first. The result is an enclosed seam with double rows of stitching that's very strong and hard-wearing.

Choosing the Right Size:

• 4mm Foot: Creates narrower flat-felled seams. Ideal for lightweight to medium-weight fabrics, dress shirts, and projects requiring a more delicate finish
• 6mm Foot: Creates wider flat-felled seams. Perfect for heavier fabrics like denim, canvas, workwear, and jeans where durability is paramount
• Match Size to Project: Choose based on fabric weight and desired seam width for professional results

Using the Foot:

1. First Pass: Place fabric layers wrong sides together with one layer extending beyond the other. Stitch seam. Press both seam allowances to one side
2. Second Pass (with Felling Foot): Trim lower seam allowance to half width. Fold wider seam allowance over trimmed edge. Position folded edge under foot's flange. The groove guides fabric as you stitch, enclosing raw edge and creating flat-felled seam in one pass
3. Result: Professional enclosed seam with two parallel rows of stitching, clean on both sides

Benefits:

• Professional Finish: Enclosed seam provides clean look on both inside and outside of garment
• Durability: Double rows of stitching make seam very strong and hard-wearing
• Time-Saving: Automates folding process—no manual folding and pressing required
• Ease of Use: Simplifies tricky sewing technique, making professional seams accessible
• Consistent Results: Set width (4mm or 6mm) ensures perfectly parallel stitching every time

Tips for Best Results:

• Choose foot size (4mm or 6mm) based on fabric weight and desired seam width
• Works best on sturdy fabrics like denim, canvas, and chambray
• Flange and groove automate the folding process for consistent results
• All-metal hinged construction ensures durability and smooth operation
• Perfect for jeans, men's shirts, workwear, and hard-wearing garments
• Creates professional finish that's difficult to achieve manually
