I have been sewing for years and I’m not ashamed to admit (I didn’t know) that lowering the needle before the pressor foot is lowered, will prevent the thread from bunching or becoming unthreaded. So glad I watched this!
Same for me, too! I'm 74 years old and learned on one of the "new" electric Singers when my mother up-graded from her treddle machine. All these years of sewing, I never knew that. Just goes to show, you can teach an old dog new tricks! Thanks.
Thank you! I was looking at these feet on the website a couple of weeks ago and was bewildered as to the differences. I just stumbled onto this video tonight and it helped so much! I also had no idea about lowering the needle first!!
I learned to sew in the '60s on my mom's Featherweight, and was taught to lower the needle before the presser foot. Until today I didn't know why.
These demos are fantastic! Thanks.
April, thank you for those very clear 1/4” options. Excellent video.
Started on an old singer in 1962 about 10 yrs. old. I just love the sound of those machines-true workhorse
Sweet video!! Well done!! Thank you! I didn't know there was such a variety of 1/4" feet. Now I know!
Great explanation of the differences on these presser feet.
Fantastic video, closeups are so helpful!
Your seams are perfect and beautiful. Such quality from a dear machine. Thanks for sharing.
I tried watching and entering for the Facebook featherweight give away, I don't have connection between fb, and you tube, Instagram, or others... I Am sharing everywhere. Thus machine, is THE MACHINE I Want... Even if I need to wait another 5 year's to buy one!!
Very informative!
Thank you for sharing this very informative video..I sew as well. Blessings
Do you still sell the featherweight machines if so what price range do you have avalable
Will the scant quarter inch foot for the featherweight fit the 192k spartan ? The assembly looks the same
When I sew on my feather weight I pull on one of the threads on the side the thread comes out is that tension
I always press my seams open, would you recommend the true quarter inch instead of the scant?
That's a good question! Because each sewist has their own sewing style and preference, it is recommended that you do a test swatch first sewing three strips together and then measuring the final size. If you find that your test block measures accurately with the foot and pressing method, then you will be all set! Otherwise, if it's a little bit off, you can make adjustments to foot style, sewing or pressing method.
When you put your machine away, should the presser foot be up or down.
Down - it releases the tension and pressure on the tension spring. :)
I have a 15-91 Singer. Can these feet be used on that model too?
I would like to know that too
Thank you for your presser feet demonstration! I’m also curious to know what the reason is for intentionally sewing off the end of your material. Most times in this video, you always seemed to pick up speed with no material left under the needle. Can you explain the purpose for this? Thanks!
How do I order the scant foot?
All of the products featured in our videos are available for purchase on our website. In the search bar on our site type "scant foot" and it will come right up! Happy to help and happy Featherweight sewing! :)

How do you get them
The link in the video description will take you to the right place.
I have always thought that making stitches after the fabric runs out would cause a thread jam but in this video, April, you consistently sew off the edge of the fabric. Explain. :)
Hi, Suzanne! That's called "chain-piecing". It is a technique works on most machines when sewing short distances in between pieces.
