OMG I've had this foot in my sewing room drawer for 8.5 years, never knew or cared how to use it, when I bought the machine it came with it. Of course I just haven't looked for any instruction, however, I believe I will go play with it tomorrow and see about the darling stuff I can come up with. I'm using my granddaughter's machine while mine is being serviced and I'll have something to show her when she comes back next weekend. TY for making everything so clear.
this is the best demo of the flower foot. the info sheet that came w it was not as easy to understand as your demo. your demo will go on my facebook pg. its a keeper.
Oh my goodness! I have had this foot for years and could never figure out how it works. Your video was so helpful! Tomorrow I am trying it again! I cannot thank you enough! PS. Did you know that on today’s date in 1842 John Greenough applied for the first US patent for a sewing machine? Fun fact for your company!
Wow. Thank you so much. I have this foot but couldn't quite figure out everything it would do. Another video online said to make sure the bobbin is in before installing the foot. I did learn this the hard way.LOL.
So glad i found your videos. I purchased the flower stitch foot quite a while back but have not had time to learn how to use it. Your tutorial certainly cleared up a lot of questions for me.
Hi Deborah! I have a Brother LB6800 - we have them on our site. Such a great machine! Thankfully, most new sewing machines have a thread cutter - such a great little feature!
Hi have you tried using a fusible interfacing?, also using a tear off or water soluble backing as well really helps. I struggled a lot at first but this worked. I have plate to cover feed dogs but it kept popping off so tried covering feed dogs with polyvinyl electrician tape ensuring i leave a space around the needle hole. This works every time. The tape does not leave sticky residue and when i take it off i leave it on the side of my machine to use again. !!!! do not use sticky tape!!!! Tips Thread needle with presser foot up ensures it goes through tension disks Check using correct bobbin for your machine ensure it us wound correctly Set lower tension 3-4 is good for me but you may need to adjust depending on stitch chosen and material Ensure your sewing piece can move freely and does not get stuck in throat area of machine. Practice in smaller pieces of fabric I use 90 (14) universal needle but for thicker embroidery threads and glittery threads embroidery needles might be useful as have larger eye If am just using stabiliser i find i can use 80 (11) universal needle Hope this helps someone 😊
Do not take this wrong. But I love you. lol. your video was so well made. I had watched a couple and still was fighting with it. Now i cannot wait to play.
Just got my foot today and couldn't wait! Worked great right out of the box. This tutorial made it so easy to understand, too. Wish my machine had more fancy stitches to play with using this foot, but ohhh the ideas that have popped into my head already! The only thing I can suggest to others who buy this foot, if you are going to sew onto one piece of fabric, use a stabilizer of some sort with it.
I tried it and the results were fun, but it only worked on an old machine with foot pressure adjustment, I now have a new machine with this, I should try again - and watch this video to see where I went wrong.
Hi, I love this turorial, very clear instructions. I would love to purchase one of these for my Singer which comes with a plate that I cover my feed dogs with which means I can't actually "lower the feed dogs". Please can you tell me if I can still use one of these feet for my machine.. Thank you for posting such an informative tutorial and thanks for answering my question in advance.. A stich of love to ya! x
Thank you for this demo. I purchased this from you because your are the first to complete it can be used on my Brother QC1000. I have placed an order and am now waiting to receive so I can try this our. Also your pricing was much better than anyone else. Since you use Brother. Do you have videos for the Brother 2340CV?
Thanks for the demo on this foot. What is the tool you using to tighten/loosen the screw that tightens the foot. Did it come with your machine. How large of a circle will it make.
love this video. I could not figure out threading or winding yhe bobbin on my Singer Quantum 9960 machine. as soon as I get off of here I will try it. wish m e luck. does my machine come with a flower attachment? I did not see any. If not, can I buy one somewhere?
I've just recently got a flower foot for my sewing machine,I can do small an medium designs,but when I try the large it messes up it won't go in a circle am I suppose to move the something to make it go in a circle correctly on large motions? Ty ur video has been a big help!!
Hi Audrey! I am so sorry- I some how missed your comments! I don't believe your machine comes with this foot, however this foot is compatible. Where you able to figure out how to thread the bobbin?
Hi! I had seen many of your tutorials, very well done, good explanations and clear. You are a good teacher. I have a low shank computerized machine which works marvelous with lots of feet. The only 1 I can't figure out what is wrong, why doesn't do any flower, and I tried all about thread tensions, I use different types of fabric, always with the proper film behind the fabric and zero...my machine doesn't do anything. The up thread line simply doesn't stay on fabric most of the times...but does all the other complicated padrons without any change on the machine. I only put again the feed dogs. When I lower them to use this foot, the stitches come up and don't stay. I locked the 1 ones. I even bought a second foot to see if the problem persist and yes. I am so frustrated. Everyone is doing nice flowers...
My machine has a similar problem. It's not picking the thread n making a stitch but going all around without picking threads. Hv you figured out the problem. Would be really happy if you can let me know too
@@merlefernandes5863 Hi! I think your machine and mine do the same problem. The upper thread simple don't stay on. Sometimes one or another stays, but the majority don't. Than there is a big amount of thread in a " head" under the fabric. Doesn' t do any flower. Would be very nice if the lady who posted this video, could say what she knows about, or if she doesn't know. Any other person who can help? Or have a similar problem and sorted it out? Can you please say what is the solution?
@@wakeupherewego7245 Further down in comments, someone had similar issue and I quote the answer below: "Sewing Parts Online 3 years ago Hi! If the thread isn't catching, I recommend changing your needle - ideally to a topstitching needle." Also, found this question and answer below in quotes: if you need that as well :-) " when shifting the foot over minus or the plus sign....should the needle be up when moving it? The needle should be up while you are moving it. If you're doing a circle inside a circle, only the foot should move. The Flower Stitch Foot kind of acts as your new feed dogs".
@@incanada83 Oh thank you for all information. I will write them and try all. I can say that I think , I am not sure, that i had tried with a brand new needle for thin fabric, as it was that kind of fabric, but with the one proper for embroidery behind. About moving the width of the circle, I do put the needle up, which for what you post is wrong. But 1 things 1. You mean should be a brand new needle, and for the fabric I am using right?
@@wakeupherewego7245 You're welcome :-) Well, according to what the Sewing Parts Online suggested, you may have to try that specific sewing needle. But aside from that, I have a suggestion : have a look at this tutorial (watch from the beginning to end) because it explains better the whole process. I think it is about fabric choices and stabilizer. Either way, it's interesting, not long , and it may help you? I know I learned few things from it !? ua-cam.com/video/OXYNzdddr5k/v-deo.html
It all depends on what fabric you're using and what kind of stitching you're doing. To sew decorative stitches on woven, medium weight cotton, a light-weight cutaway for fusible stabilizer should work nicely.
I can’t even get this foot to move in a circular motion! I’ve had this for so many years I keep checking for new videos to see what I’m doing wrong but it still won’t move! I’m exhausted!
thank you for tutorial. I did not understand why you moved the outer notch forward 3 - what does that do. You said you can move 3-6 or 9. Please explain what this does.
Sherry Fradley Each "flower" is done individually, so if you wanted to make a row of flower stitches, you would have to mark with chalk and reposition your foot. Give that a try and let me know if that works!
Hi! It comes with the chart when you buy it, but if you've lost the chart, send us a message to sarah AT sewing parts online DOT com and I'll email you a copy.

Hello from Australia! How are you? Iam a beginners on this. I have a Brother JS1400 sewing machine. But not sure what foot i can used to my sewing machine. Can you please tell me? Thank you very much And also this demo you did, how did you bring the thread up from underneath without sewing the fabric? Appreciated for your reply. Thank you very much
Hello! I am not showing that this flower stitch foot is guaranteed for your machine; however, after doing some research, it appears you have a low shank machine. It would be a great option to try. As for pulling up the thread, after your machine is properly threaded, you manually rotate your handwheel towards you while holding the top thread and you can carefully pull up the thread. If you would like a visual, please watch our Beginner's Guide to Sewing (Episode 1). This is explained at 9:38. www.sewingpartsonline.com/blog/beginners-guide-sewing-ins-outs-sewing-machine/ I hope this helps!
This is so great! The other tutorials don't explain how to use different stitches with the foot. So many more possibilities! Thanks!

Tips
Thread needle with presser foot up ensures it goes through tension disks
Check using correct bobbin for your machine ensure it us wound correctly
Set lower tension 3-4 is good for me but you may need to adjust depending on stitch chosen and material
Ensure your sewing piece can move freely and does not get stuck in throat area of machine. Practice in smaller pieces of fabric
I use 90 (14) universal needle but for thicker embroidery threads and glittery threads embroidery needles might be useful as have larger eye
If am just using stabiliser i find i can use 80 (11) universal needle
Hope this helps someone 😊
These tips are wonderful!! Thanks for sharing!

Pulling up the bobbin thread before starting to machine the flower is very important. Or thread won't catch on the upside
Wow - thank you so much! I'm glad it was helpful!
the video helps soooo much-thanks
Hi! Unfortunately, Viking does not have this foot yet.
Thanks for the demo on this foot. What is the tool you using to tighten/loosen the screw that tightens the foot. Did it come with your machine. How large of a circle will it make.

Hi Melissa! Unfortunately, Huskystar is pretty picky about what feet it will use. It's not compatible with the Flower Stitch Foot. Sorry ;(
I've just recently got a flower foot for my sewing machine,I can do small an medium designs,but when I try the large it messes up it won't go in a circle am I suppose to move the something to make it go in a circle correctly on large motions? Ty ur video has been a big help!!
Hi Maximumblue! It will work with both of your machines!
Hi Audrey! I am so sorry- I some how missed your comments! I don't believe your machine comes with this foot, however this foot is compatible. Where you able to figure out how to thread the bobbin?
That was one awesome video.
I seen you say to "bring the bobin thread up" that would be why mine is not working??? Cheers for that info
This accessory foot works with a low shank machine only. It will work with some Janome machines like the 6500.
Wow, that was fast reply, thank you so much.
My pleasure!

very very nice This so cool.....
Thanks so much, the answer helped,
what kind of stabiliser should I use if I want to stitch on garments, quilts and other projects?

What?!?!? Eyelets in a minute?!?!?! I have not been living right!!!
Most modern sewing machines have a built in stitch for eyelets.
Unfortunately, this foot does not work with Husqvarna Viking machines.
Do u have a print out of the stitches and what flowers they make? Or a few of them anyway
I have an old Kenmore with stationary needle. Will this work for me ? I have a short shank model.
Can this be used on Singer 9116? Your tutorial makes me want to try this out sooooo badly.. :)
thank you for tutorial.
I did not understand why you moved the outer notch forward 3 - what does that do. You said you can move 3-6 or 9. Please explain what this does.
Hi! After you've sewn 1 circle, you can move the notches 3-9 clicks to create a transposition stitch.
I had the same question. There are lots of notches on the clear plastic ring, but you can only move it 3-6-9 notches?
Will this foot fit the Bernina 580, with the low shank adapter,#77, please?
You have a perfect nails.
Is there any way of aligning the stitches, e.g., circles or flowers in a straight row?
