Laura your detailed explanation is the best I've seen on this. You covered all the necessary aspects of the ruffler foot but left the creativity open to the user. You make your videos from the perspective of the viewer every time. Many don't. Thank you for your trouble & time.

Thanks, very nice tutorial. I have a brand new BabyLock ruffler and will be using it for the first time today. I love the way you talk slower than most videos and close-ups of the working parts are so much appreciated. The hint about the scrap pieces and notes and also the two screws in the back to adjust the needle in the hole. Love your tutorials! Shari

03/19 Laura - I recently started making some over the oven handle towel holders as gifts and was SO frustrated with gathering via the "thread method." I purchased a ruffling foot, followed your instructions and, "wa-la", perfect toppers on towels! :-) Thanks so much for your wonderful tutorial (by the way, I am having so much fun making these quick gifts.)

Love the ruffler on the featherweight, lol. I am getting a new machine at the end of this month and going to order the ruffler to go with it. I've been doing it the old fashioned way and just hate it and its so much trouble. I am looking forward to doing them this easy way. Thanks for the great video's. Janet

You are so much braver than me. I wouldn't think to put the ruffler on my featherweight...oh goodness. But, I suppose it could...since it was used on them. Right now,my "Josie" is set up for finishing up doll clothes. Maybe someday I'll be brave and let her sew like the newer thread babies lol.

Thank you for giving good detailed information. I do have a question about the guides on the top side of the ruffler foot in front of the needle. I assume they wouldn't be there if they weren't used for something.... lace, trim, etc. I've looked and can't find any other information about those guides or other guides on foot. Thank you for a great tut!.

@aktam997 жыл бұрын
You can also sew a ruffle on to a flat piece of fabric instead of making the ruffle and then sewing it on. You put the fabric to be ruffled in just like you showed and put the flat piece completely underneath the foot and sew it together all at once.

@SewVeryEasy4 жыл бұрын
This is one of the hardest things to judge for a ruffler. What I do is take a scrap fabric at at least 10 inches and test the ruffler. from you there you're going to be able to do some math and figure out how much fabric you were going to need

@SewVeryEasy8 жыл бұрын
+Sam Stacey good question and I don't not have math for this, however what I do is make a sample and then take it apart and get the measurements from there. that way I make no mistakes:)
@lamonawhitt59237 жыл бұрын
Ok you math wizards, if you set your machine (not your foot) to sew a 12, 6, per inch Is there a math equation we could use? I usually make ruffle longer then trim. It would great to have a formula.
@lizzieannethus89987 жыл бұрын
I think I have an answer but I work in metric and set my machine using stitch length rather than "stitches per inch". I'm also not sure what the settings on the pleat depth screw mean. I'm assuming they're in millimetres and that it's the finished depth of the pleat e.g. setting 4 would end up with a 4mm deep pleat, that would mean 'pushing' 8mm of fabric forwards into the pleat, folding it in half to make the 4mm pleat. If so, use this formula for how much ADDITIONAL fabric length you need to start with, to make your desired finish length. 2 x P x L/(F x S) L = your desired finished Length of fabric in millimetres P = the Pleat depth set on the thumbscrew. F = your pleat Frequency (every 1, 6, or 12 stitches, or whatever settings you have available on your own ruffler). S = the Stitch length you set on your machine, in mm So if I wanted to end up with a 60cm length of fabric with a 4mm pleat every 6 stitches and my stitch length was set to 5mm, I would need to start with 2 x 4 x 600/(6x5) = 160mm 'extra' fabric i.e. starting length of 76cm If I'm wrong about the pleat depth setting and 4 only sends 4mm of fabric into the pleat, creating a 2mm pleat depth, then just take the 2 out of the formula. Dear internet, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!
@lizzieannethus89987 жыл бұрын
The same principle applies to working in inches. This formula works out how often the pleat will occur along the fabric and how much fabric is 'lost' into the pleat each time, therefore how much fabric length you need to add to start with. The pleat depth setting will be in mm and the rest of your calculation is in inches but that's OK, it still works, just remember that your formula result will be in mm: 2Y x (L x SPI/F) where SPI = stitches per inch, L is now length in inches, F and Y as above so if I set the machine to 12 stitches per inch and the ruffler to pleat every 6 stitches with a 4mm pleat depth, and want to finish up with a length of 20": 2 x 4mm x (20 x 12/6) = 320mm 'extra' I need to measure on top of the 20" finish length.

I have a Husqvarna Viking Designer Ruby deLuxe. I purchased the HV ruffler for my machine. First one was totally defective. Second one, lasted for only 12 widths of fabric...it cost almost $100. Are rufflers universal? I purchased another brand, low shank and I'm afraid to use it not being sure if they are universal. It was a fraction of the price. Supposedly, from the seller on ebay it is "supposed" to be o.k. Help!
