Low Shank Ruler & Quilting Feet for Sewing Machines

The Ruler Foot for Frame Quilting is designed for low shank sewing machines. It features a sturdy metal construction and is positioned 1/4" from the edges of the ruler, allowing for precise quilting with acrylic template rulers. This low shank ruler foot is crafted to float just above the fabric surface, enabling you to achieve beautifully quilted effects on your home sewing machine.

To determine if your machine is compatible, simply lower the foot and measure the height from the center of the screw hole to the needle plate. If it measures 1/2", then your machine is considered a low shank.

The Ruler Foot for Frame Quilting boasts several key features that make it a valuable addition to your quilting toolkit. It has two U-shaped recesses, one in the front for sit-down free motion quilting and another on the side for stand-up quilting on a frame, providing better visibility. Additionally, the foot features a slit on the side for easy thread passage, a feature not found on some other models. The long slot allows for adjusting the foot height to suit your needs.

When using this Ruler Foot, simply attach it to your low shank machine and adjust the height so that the foot lightly skims the surface of the quilt. The 1/4" radius from the needle and the 3/16" height of the foot provide stability and control when working with low shank style rulers and acrylic templates.

The open-toe design of this Ruler Foot offers excellent visibility of the needle area, making it ideal for precision-based quilting techniques such as appliqué, thread painting, and artistic quilting. Its thinner profile compared to traditional presser feet further enhances the visibility and control during intricate sewing projects.

The low shank ruler foot is crafted with sturdy metal construction, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. The cutouts on the front and left sides of the foot provide comfortable viewing of the needle area, allowing you to guide your fabric with ease.

It's important to note that low shank machines have less clearance behind the foot and under the presser foot bar. Therefore, low shank rulers, which measure 3mm in thickness, are the thinnest option to work seamlessly with the Low Shank Ruler Foot (LS) and Medium Shank Foot (MS).

In summary, the Ruler Foot for Frame Quilting is a versatile and essential tool for quilters using low shank sewing machines. Its features, including the sturdy metal construction, precise positioning, and adjustable height, make it an invaluable companion for creating beautiful quilted designs with acrylic templates and rulers.
