Free Motion Echo Quilting Foot 413320245

Free Motion Echo Quilting Foot 413320245 Overview

The Free-motion Echo Quilting foot is designed to give you more control when free-motion quilting. The large base ensures good surface contact with the fabric and provides better control of the stitching. The transparent base allows for 360° visibility. Vertical, horizontal and circular markings on the foot make it easy to follow a continuous line quilting pattern or design on the fabric. Sew straight lines or follow patterns with rounded edges in any direction.

How to use the Free Motion Echo Quilting Foot

• Loosen the presser foot ankle screw completely and remove the ankle
• Fit the Free-motion Echo Quilting foot around the presser bar
• Thread your machine
• Select a straight stitch
• Set your sewing machine to Sensormatic free-motion mode. The feed dogs will drop automatically.

Note: When the feed dogs are dropped, the fabric is no longer fed by the machine. You must move the fabric.

• Bring the bobbin thread to the top by taking one stitch. Hold on to both threads and sew a few stitches in place to begin
• Maintain a consistent speed and move the fabric in a smooth motion. You are creating the length of the stitch as you move the fabric
• Stitch around the quilting motif, appliqué or pattern on the fabric, maintaining a uniform distance to outline the shape
• Stitch a second row, maintaining a uniform distance from the first row. Use the red markings on the foot as a guide to keep your spacing even
• Repeat as many times as you want to create the desired effect

Note: When sewing in Sensormatic free-motion mode at a low speed the presser foot will raise and lower with each stitch to hold the fabric on the stitch plate while the stitch is being performed. At a higher speed, the presser foot floats over the fabric while sewing.
