If you've ever struggled to feed your fabric through a sewing machine, you need a Walking Foot. Also known as a "Dual Feed Foot" and "Even Feed Foot", the Walking Foot is an essential tool for any sewer. This foot has built-in feed dogs that grip your fabric for better control. Sewing thick fabric, multiple layers (quilts, binding), slippery fabric (leather, pvc, vinyl), and plush fabric (velvet, minky, suede) is fast, easy, and professional. This 7mm Open Toe Brother Walking Foot has never been used. It was removed from the packaging to look at, but was put back in afterwards. The backing of the package has a rip in the cardboard, doesn't affect the foot at all.
