The metal guide keeps my fabric lined up nicely with the needle, getting an even seam all around. Whether sewing straight lines of curves, I am not disappointed and the sewing goes quickly.
Today I began appliqueing flowers and leaves to my "soon-to-be" pot holders. Working only on one layer of wool, I did a simple outline stitch. Monofilament thread is used so thread color doesn't distract from the design. Simple felt pieces sewn onto the layer of wool, but easy with this foot; going around curves quite easily.
Tomorow will finish the pot holder; and who knows? Just maybe my favorite foot will change when I add the binding!
Happy Stitchery!

I was trying this foot as a stitch in a ditch on my quilt of triangles. It was hard for me to see the needle when coming to the point. The foot is large. I ended up using my Pfaff with the clear same foot and it was much easier to se when I came up to the point. There is a 1/4 amount from the edge back to the needle. If I use it more I think it will be easier for me. In your sewing example I think it is a.great idea. Thank you. Judy
The more I use it, the easier it gets to judge by the back of the actual foot when come to corners. Will try to take a pic to show that. I do use my open toe A LOT because of the huge visibility.
