Darning Feet #14 and #23 (free motion quilting feet)

[@bronsoban5869]

Just playing with new presser feet, these are great tutorials.

[@MadamSew]

Thank you!

[@DJFreshMakes]

When using darning foot #14, you're supposed to pull the needle thread below the foot, not pull the bobbin thread on top of it. When both threads are beneath the foot, you don't get the loose threads trailing within your foot and getting under your stitches.

Can’t wait to try this!

Thanks a million 👍🌹🌹

Why have two feet that do the same thing? I'm not trying to be snarky. I'm really curious as to why.

[@MadamSew]

They have their own set of differences :) Some people prefer using #14, others 23. Foot number 23 is transparent, 14 is not. The needle opening of 14 is more circular. Foot number 14 is pushed down by the needle bar, 23 has a spiral spring. But they can definitely be used for similar projects! I prefer using #23. Hope this solves your query :)

[@ElianaTali]

@@MadamSew Thank you.

Your finished quilt sample is covered by your foot name header so the work is not visible.

[@helenahorswell3595]

What stitch length and tension should be used with these feet please?

[@LongHairCarolyn]

I still don't really understand which I should choose. Is it just preference or are there some circumstances where one is better than the other?

[@MadamSew]

I think it is just preference!

[@LongHairCarolyn]

@ thank you. I just tried the spring one and I like it!

Thanks

These are called Darning Feet, how do you use them to actually darn? That is what I am searching for. Are there any videos on that topic?

[@MadamSew]

Hi Robynn, I'm using the darning foot in this video to repair jeans pants. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIicY62XpJ6ngM0

[@robynnbryar1977]

Thank you very .much.

[@nikkid114]

The bar on the spring loaded foot that is to go over the needle bar broke on my first use🤬 and the #14 foot doesn’t even touch my quilt at all. So now what can I try. I have a quilt partially quilted.

[@MadamSew]

Hey Nikki, can you please drop us an email at [e-mail] and we will help you out!

[@nikkid114]

MadamSew I have been in contact with customer service and they are sending me a new #23 darning foot. I am wondering about the #14, is it to hover over the fabric or should it sit down into the fabric. Customer service did send me information and a photo of how it is to fit on the machine. But my foot hovers over the quilt and does not touch it at all.

I wish you would get rid of the banner as it interferes with the tutorial and you can't see what you're doing. Also, you should take the camera out just a bit to give a better scope of what you're explaining. This is just my opinion, but I notice it on all of your videos and they are hard to watch with it there, that's all. Great tutorials by the way!

[@EuphemiaGrubb]

Yes, I so agree! There's not much point in watching these as the focal point always seems to be just behind the banner.

[@p.a.antonio7515]

I agree.. it's hard to see some of the important details. I like the content tho

[@bothloveme]

May I know what it the name of that black thing which you put under the feet so the cloth will not stuck inside??

[@SparkyOne549]

Darning plate, it’s used for machines that can’t drop the feed dogs.

[@psjjkelly]

Is this for low shank only?

[@MadamSew]

Yes, low-shank only

[@niamhsimons216]

Can you do darning with a normal foot?

[@MadamSew]

Hey! Which foot exactly?

[@bonnielussier9295]

Will this foot#14 work on a Janome New Home 2030DC?

[@MadamSew]

Yes it will!

[@cearma-rosariocardenas7319]

Gracias entendí, pero no muy bien tengo que mirar unas dos otras veces. Me gustaría que pongan en español si fuera posible por favor uno venderían más los kits y dos aprenderlas más rápido y la gente se interesaría más porque a los países latinos esta llegando recién los kits gracias
