Many stitchers make beautiful and useful items using only an all-purpose presser foot. So why do sewing machines come with 5, 8, or even 12 presser feet? And why are there dozens of presser feet and accessories available as optional tools to make your sewing machine sing and dance? This lecture-style class answers these questions while discussing a variety of presser feet and sewing techniques that will expand your definition of sewing.
