Manufacturers offer a huge assortment of sewing machine feet. With their help, the work efficiency, as well as its quality, is significantly increased. Of course, for home use you can have far from a complete set, but it is useful for all craftswomen to know about the availability of convenient devices. The purpose of the foot depends on the type of sewing machine. Below we describe for the most common application, description and purpose, as well as attach a photo of what kind of paws are.
In most options, this nozzle is needed for work. It is universal. With its help, it is easy to work with the most popular types of fabrics and sew the main options for stitches, which include straight and zigzag. Most craftswomen choose this particular nozzle, replacing it with a standard model.
This device makes it possible to quickly sew on an oblique trim, without additional basting by hand. With the help of ordinary paws, this process is noticeably complicated. The wizard is required to evenly position the edges on two sides of the material. When the lower part is not visible, only an experienced craftswoman can cope with a similar task. The presence of a special nozzle allows you to do a similar job even for a beginning seamstress.
Using a special design, the upper and lower parts of the inlay are captured and sewn along the edges of the product. The task of the craftswoman is only to straighten the material in time on time. Typically, the recommendations indicate the preferred parameters of the oblique inlay. Therefore, you can both take the finished strip, and cut it yourself according to the given parameters. The purchased strip is inserted through a special recess in the "snail", and deployed into the main hole of the mechanism. If you use an inlay of the wrong size, it may wrinkle inside the device. The nozzle is very convenient to use: it can be quickly attached to the machine, or removed from it.
REFERENCE!The "snail" of such a device may include several holes of various configurations, which will allow to attach the bakes of various parameters.
For attachment of lightning there are devices of various variations and sizes. They differ both in size and in the structure of the front zone of tissue intake. Each master chooses a convenient and understandable device based on personal preferences and work experience. Some seamstresses love large and reliable fixtures, and some, on the contrary, are small. With the help of such a foot, fasteners are sewn into clothes. The surface tightly presses the fabric and allows you to track the movement of stitches. Due to the presence of special recesses, the nozzle is easy to apply both on the right and on the left side.
IMPORTANT!Also, mechanisms for attaching zippers, in addition to their primary functions, do an excellent job with edging products. If the strip is narrow, then it is attached like a zipper, and if wide, then as close as possible to the cut.
Many novice masters are afraid of the process of stitching secret zippers. However, in reality, having the necessary materials, this stage of the work is not so difficult. Usually the problem arises when a seal is formed by lightning. A specially thought-out foot gently pinches the edges of the cloves, stretches the zipper and thereby the process becomes much simpler. The nozzle allows you to embed a hidden zipper exactly in the seam, because the stitches go to the cloves very tightly. There are many models on the market that allow you to sew on zippers from both metal and plastic.
This type of nozzle is equipped with a special button recess in which it is sewn onto the material. This nozzle is also used to fix hooks and other types of fasteners of a similar type. Thanks to this device, it became possible to fix the button on the dress in a couple of seconds. Consider the process of working with this device in stages:
- First you need to disable the bottom conveyor.
- Next, in order for the needle tip to fall exactly into a special groove, you should select the appropriate stitch parameters.
- If the machine has a darn plate, then it should also be installed.
- Next, you need to place the product on the typewriter and place the button on it. For greater convenience and reliability, many masters use a special adhesive composition in their work, which can be quickly removed later.
- First, the needle is inserted into the left hole, and then into the right. It is advisable to work slowly.
- Next, turn on the automatic mode and by pressing the pedal sew the button.
- If the button has four holes, then the material is shifted and the process is repeated again.
This device will be useful primarily to those who do not have an overlock. It facilitates the process of bending the bottom and sleeves, stitching the neck and processing tucks. Knit and stretch fabrics should be sewn especially carefully, as they belong to the category of complex tissues. They are gentle and easy to stretch. One of the most common problems is improperly picking up threads or material and getting them into the needle plate. In such cases, frequent skipped stitches and generally poor-quality stitching are possible.
The nozzle has a special emphasis, which allows you to cut off the zone of movement of the needle. More expensive models have rubber or silicone pads that handle material neatly. This pad stretches and holds the fabric under the needle. It will not allow the material to sag and get stuck between the teeth of the lower conveyor. The fabric runs much faster, and the perfect stitch is obtained without any extra effort.
REFERENCE!Using a knitted nozzle, experts advise sewing using a low speed mode.
The blind seam is one of the most popular when processing the edge of the product. Many craftswomen prefer to do it manually. However, the technology does not stand still and there are devices that do an excellent job with the function. It is enough for the seamstress to properly tuck the fabric and press the pedal of the machine. Such nozzles often come in a set with a special guide. Nozzles for secret lines are recommended to be selected only for loose and dense textures. In thinner fabrics, a trace of the stitch will be noticeable.
This option makes it quite easy to make a beautiful line. The nozzle is a small double piece with a recess over the entire surface. The fabric for assembly is tucked under the nozzle, and in the crack is the product element to which the assembly is to be sewn. The product is multifunctional and allows you to assemble, process fabric and attach shuttlecocks.
Depending on the choice of stitch, the assembly may be thicker or less frequent. So, with a wide stitch, it is much denser. You can also adjust the tension of the upper thread and thereby obtain the desired option. Inexperienced craftsmen first need to practice on a small piece of fabric and only then proceed with sewing the main product. It is necessary to cut a piece of material of certain dimensions, make an assembly, and then evaluate its length and quality. With this nozzle you can make spectacular ruffles and shuttlecocks, as well as adjust the braid with the effect of assembly.
For cheaper models, additional equipment of the machine with an adapter of low landing is necessary. In addition, such a manufacturing method requires a habit and a certain experience, since The mode is quite diverse. More technologically advanced and expensive nozzles allow the master to make high-quality assemblies, making only a minimum of effort. This process is very interesting to watch.
Attention!The assembly option also depends on the texture of the material. Thin fabric picks up more than dense and thin.
Modern sewing machines are equipped with a wide range of special accessories for comfortable sewing. The main components are the legs. Many cars have a standard package of these devices. Most machines are equipped with convenient holders, thanks to which the foot can be quickly removed and replaced with a new one depending on the task.
