who'd have thunk it... however, not all machine feet are created equal. I will look at my Brother foot...

Thanks for sharing! I can't wait to measure my zipper foot.

Outstanding idea! Love it when you can use one thing to do more than it was intended for.
|
Thanks for the tip!

Great idea to accumulate already sewn HST - and it doesn't actually have to be a perfect 1/2" either - close counts when it is sewn this way. A little on the skimpy side works fine when you don't have to move those little triangles through the needle path all by themselves.

How awesome is this - more multi-sewing gadgets we already all own! Thanks much for a wonderful tip.
