Frequently Asked Questions - SINGER® Presser Feet

Most modern SINGER® sewing machines use standard low-shank snap-on presser feet. However, it's always best to check your machine's manual or the presser foot's product description to confirm compatibility, as some models may differ.

A Walking Foot, also called an Even Feed Foot, has its own set of feed dogs that work with your machine's feed dogs to pull multiple layers of fabric through evenly. It is essential for quilting and perfectly matching plaids or stripes.

Use the Zipper Foot. It has notches on both sides, allowing you to get the needle extremely close to the zipper teeth for a neat and professional installation. Most SINGER® machines come with a standard zipper foot included.

The Satin Stitch Foot (or Appliqué Foot) is often clear and has a groove on the underside. This design allows dense decorative stitches to pass underneath freely without getting jammed, which can happen with a standard All-Purpose Foot.

Most SINGER® machines use a snap-on system. To change a foot, simply push a lever or button to release the current foot, then position a new foot underneath the shank and lower the presser foot lifter until it snaps into place.
