Using a 1/4 inch piecing foot will help quilter’s maintain an accurate 1/4 inch seam allowance for quilt piecing. When using this foot pay close attention to the machine settings as having the needle in the wrong position could result in needle breakage as the foot only has two places for the needle to pass through the foot when making the stitch.
- Ensure the needle position (or stitch width is set to ZERO or SIX)
- Ensure the stitch selector is #13 for a STRAIGHT stitch
