Piping and welting are often used to finish home décor
projects. This presser foot can be used to create many
effects, including making single- or double-piping using
bias tape and cord; attaching couch cord or piping;
and attaching covered single- or double-piping. For
example, when working with furniture pieces, double
welting cord used with upholstery fabric can be glued
over the exposed staples on the front of a sofa or chair.
To create a tailored appearance, use narrow, flexible
piping to cover the finishing seams of your project.
Topstitching double piping can cover seams or highlight
fabric designs, and double welting cord sewn
underneath fabric creates welted texture to enhance
finished products.

The braiding foot is a presser foot designed to attach braiding, cord, rat tail, or
other decorative enhancements. The braiding foot consists of an adjustable plate
with a rectangular hole in the middle centered above the “V” of the foot. There is
a depressed groove on the leading edge. To use the braiding foot, feed the trim
through this opening and under the foot. As you sew, the trim will move
automatically through the foot, so you can apply trim for any purpose your
project requires. Traditional embellishments like braiding are hand-sewn; using
the braiding foot can help you more quickly and easily give your products an
heirloom appearance.
Use the braiding foot to attach trim to a variety of handcrafts, including garments, wall hangings, quilts, upholstery, or
any other project that could benefit from a final design finish. Braids and trims can be used as applique borders, seam
covers, or decorative fabric finishes.
