FTF - Sewing Foot

I'm very late for the Favorite Thing Friday party with Shay at Quilting in My Pyjamas.   So late, that I think it's already Saturday at her house!  Ooops!

This week, my favorite thing is my quarter inch sewing foot with guide.

I have no idea why it took me so long to get one of these, but I've been using it for about a year.  It has really made me a better quilter as my seams are much more accurate.

I also don't spend hours pinning everything before I piece it.  And it has increased my confidence levels by leaps and bounds.

I'd used markings on sewing feet before, but the guide on this makes all the difference.

So this little tiny foot is my FTF!

PS - I'm so late today, cause me and my foot were playing most of the day....

I would be lost with out mine. It actually gave me the confidence to attempt piecing in the first place..I was a shocker til I got one.

Mine came with my machine (Janome, what's yours?) and I love it!

I've never seen one of those before. Just another thing to add to my list of must haves. Good FTF!

I totally agree AMW. I bought a 1/4 inch foot a few years ago and it is one of my absolute favourite sewing tools!
