The #5 foot's flange goes through the middle and past the needle. So when you do a blind hem, the flange keeps the thread loose.
The #10 foot only has a flange in the front. It's great for stitching straight lines, but pretty useless when you need to do a curve.
Any idea as I only use the machine to quilt why I would need a #10 foot? Is there an application for quilting? And do
I still need the quarter " foot with guide? That is what started all the questions. My accurate 1/4 seam has been suffering. I've been looking into buying the 1/4" foot with guide. Should I use the #10 instead?
i appreciate your time in helping me out.
