Brother 1300 Zippper Foot, Machine Set-Up, Materials Needed for Sample, General Sewing Directions

Zippper Foot 112797-001

Standard PQ foot used for attaching zippers and piping

Machine Set-Up:

Feed dogs up using one of the three settings based on fabric and whether the pin feed is used (such as attaching zippers to stretch fabric). Other settings are based on the needs of the project.

Materials Needed for Sample:

Corded piping, linen and cotton fabric, transfer web

General Sewing Directions:

Foot 15

Attach the foot and use screw at back to position the movable foot relative to the needle. Depending on the type of zipper you are installing, one of several methods may be used. Loosen the clamp screw at the back and slide the presser foot to either side so the needle fits in the opening on the foot without hitting the metal side. Turn the balance wheel slowly toward you to check that the needle does not hit the presser foot. Secure the clamp screw.

Specific PQ Sample Directions:

Sample uses corded piping as a trim, not anchored in a seam. Pin Feed and Seam Guide were used to decorate a plain fabric attached with transfer web to the center. The Zipper foot (with pin feed engaged) attached the trim.
