Gathering Foot #16 is suitable for gathering lightweight-to-medium-weight fabrics. The fabric is gathered automatically while being sewn.
What’s more, the special indentation in the sole of Gathering Foot #16 allows you to sew the material being gathered to a flat piece of fabric in a single operation. For this, the flat material is slipped into the indentation so that it isn’t gathered at the same time.
Gathering Foot #16 is available in two different widths. The wider version is designed for sewing machines with a stitch width of up to 9mm.
Compatible with both 5.5mm and 9mm machines. While designed for a 5.5mm maximum width, it works perfectly for utility sewing on 9mm machines, although it will not utilize the full 9mm width capacity. Foot #16 Wide Sole works best on 9mm machines.
