Invisible Zipper Foot:
The Invisible Zipper Foot is a game-changer for sewing enthusiasts, especially when it comes to creating seamless and polished garment finishes. This specialized presser foot allows you to insert invisible zippers into projects with ease. The foot features two grooves on the underside, which accommodate the zipper coils while the needle stitches close to them, concealing the zipper within the fabric. The result is a clean and smooth appearance that gives the illusion of an uninterrupted fabric surface.

Quilters can utilize the Invisible Zipper Foot to attach hidden pockets on quilted totes, and purses, or even to seamlessly join sections of a quilt without any exposed seams.
Rolled Hemming Presser Foot:
The Rolled Hemming Presser Foot is a fantastic tool for achieving delicate and narrow hems on fabric edges.
