PFAFF® Piping Foot for admire™ 1000 Overlock Machine

• Choosing the right needle size and type is key to smooth, consistent stitching.


• Smaller needles work best with lighter fabrics.


• Larger needles are designed for heavier materials.


• The right combination of needle and thread ensures better stitch quality and protects your fabric and needle.


• Needles are specially designed to work with overlock machines for optimal performance on lightweight fabrics.


• Change your needle every 6-8 hours of sewing or when switching fabric types.

How to Use:

1. Set the overlock machine for the desired stitch.

2. Snap on the Piping Foot.

To stitch packaged piping into a seam:

1. Place the piping along the seam line on right side of fabric.

2. Place second piece of fabric on top with right sides together.

3. Put fabric and piping layers under the Piping Foot with the piping in the groove under the foot.

4. Sew piping into the seam. The groove will guide the piping as you sew.


To make your own piping and stitch it into a seam:

1. Cut bias or crosswise grain strips wide enough to cover the cord plus the seam allowances.

2. Lay the cord on the wrong side of the fabric strip and fold the fabric over the cord.

3. Put fabric and cord under the Piping Foot with the cord in the groove under the foot.

4. Sew. The groove will guide the cord as you sew.
