SATIN STITCH FOOT
The Satin stitch foot is grooved on the bottom to permit dense
stitching to pass under it easily. It is most useful for sewing
satin stitches. It can also be used as an alternative to the
General Purpose Foot when sewing stretch stitches.
Closely spaced zig-zag stitches are called satin stitches. This
is an attractive stitch used primarily for appliqueing and bar
NOTE on starting to sew with satin stitch foot:
Pull both threads to the left of the foot before starting to sew
in order to hold threads with the foot or top thread may be
entangled on the underside of fabric.
