Teflon Non Stick Edge Guide Presser Foot Right 3mm (1/8″)
If you love neat, professional looking topstitching, an Edge Guide Presser Foot can quickly become one of the most useful presser feet in your sewing room.
This Right Edge Guide Presser Foot is designed with a built-in guide that helps maintain a consistent 3mm (1/8″) distance from the edge of your project while sewing. Rather than relying on visual judgement alone to maintain an even topstitching distance, the guide follows the edge of your fabric, helping you achieve straighter and more even rows of stitching.
The Teflon coated base is especially useful when sewing bag making materials such as vinyl faux leather, laminated fabrics and other materials that may drag or stick under a standard metal presser foot.

Understanding Right Edge Guide Presser Feet
This presser foot features a guide positioned on the right-hand side of the needle. The guide runs along the edge of your project while the needle stitches 3mm (1/8″) from the edge.
Many bag makers prefer using a right edge guide foot when topstitching along the outer edges of bags, pockets and panels where the bulk of the project remains to the left of the needle.
Teflon Non Stick Advantage
Standard metal presser feet can sometimes drag or stick when sewing vinyl faux leather, laminated fabrics and other coated materials.
The Teflon coated underside helps the foot glide more smoothly across these surfaces, resulting in more consistent feeding and easier control while sewing.
This makes it particularly useful for many of the materials commonly used in bag making.

Please check your sewing machine manual or existing presser foot system to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
Choosing Between 3mm and 6mm Edge Guide Presser Feet
The 3mm (1/8″) versions are ideal when you prefer topstitching closer to the edge of your project, while the 6mm (1/4″) versions create a more prominent topstitching line commonly used on bags, wallets, pockets and straps.
Many bag makers choose to keep both sizes in their sewing room so they can achieve different topstitching effects depending on the project.

Helpful Tip from Chris
When topstitching around bag pockets, I like to reduce my sewing speed slightly and allow the guide to do the work. Rather than focusing on the needle, watch the guide follow the edge of the pocket. You’ll often achieve straighter and more consistent topstitching with far less effort.
For beautiful topstitching results, pair this presser foot with quality thread such as Threadsation, a sharp sewing machine needle and a slightly longer stitch length.
