Let accessory feet open a world of fun embellishment. First, forget what the manufacturer thinks you should do with the feet—those are simply suggestions which we are free to ignore – or simply move beyond. Then let's play! Use the marking foot (designed for tailor tacks) to make lovely embellished fagoting and striking braid trim. Two very different looks with one special foot, plus a little help from an open toe foot which will then go on to do its own charming brand of embellishment with another form of fagoting and some two-color machine stitch embroidery. Then a little decorative bar tacking with buttons and no foot at all! Illustrated patterns and directions included for a small sampler quilt.
