How To Use The Picot Foot

[@christinej1519]

I thought I had a picot foot, and wanted to make rolled hems, but my hems were always flat and I didn't understand why. After watching every one of your "presser foot tutorials" it turns out I had been using a narrow hem foot. Now I am relieved to understand that I need to buy this picot foot instead! Thanks for all your great videos!

[@sharondavidson7072]

You certainly make it look easy.I never could make these rolled hemmers work for me I may just give it another try!

[@fundadumlupinar969]

This is exactly what I needed to see demonstrated so thank you!

[@Momalaka318]

I know you put this video out years ago but thank you so much. I have had this darn picot foot for a year and couldn't figure it out. I tired ironing and everything and could never get it started right. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!

[@katf3836]

Wow thanks for this. Maybe I’m dense, I have just gotten back into sewing. When you shared using the tail to help feed the start of the fabric I had a eureka moment. Thanks very informative video for me!!

[@vivwriter]

Wow! Thank you sooooo much! I have had this foot in my brother sewing machine kit for YEARS and never knew how to use it. Thanks again. It's a wonderful foot and now I know how to use it. I can make better scarfs and napkins right? I am such a visual learner….. Take care…..Viv

Hi...thanks for your guided instructions here with the hemmer/picot foot demo. This makes it easy now for me to try this new adventure because your instructions are easy to follow. I sew a lot and will definitely give this a tryout. I be back to see what else you have here to show us all.Thank you!

[@janetcozens4623]

Thank you for sharing this information Sarah 👏👏👏👏👏

[@SewingPartsOnline]

I would definitely recommend this for chiffon. This foot and the rolled hem foot work well with chiffon. However, if you find your fabric being sucked into the needle place, just place a piece of tissue paper underneath the fabric while you sew. Then, rip if off when you're finished! And be sure to use a Top Stitch needle!

[@80sforever3]

I have Brother LX27NT aka GS2700, can i use topstitch needle on my machine or even embroidery needle to do those nice deco stitches?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

@@80sforever3 Hello! In answer to your other question regarding the picot and hemmer foot, we do not have any guaranteed options; however, after cros-referencing, I found a couple of feet that I feel confident will work with your machine. Hemmer: www.sewingpartsonline.com/hemmer-foot-babylock-snap-on-1.aspx Picot: www.sewingpartsonline.com/snap-on-picot-foot-sa164.aspx As for your needle question, when doing a satin stitch, a top stitch needle works great. The elongated eye helps prevent the thread from breaking. Just know, if you decide to use decorative thread- like metallic- switch the needle out for a metallic needle. I hope that this helps.

[@bonniekonjevich7574]

Fifty years of sewing, and now I finally comprehend about how fabric is inserted into the picot foot. Guess it looked harder than it actually was...No excuse my apprehension, as was a young person w/at least an associate degree. Was tired of screwing up fabric!

[@sharondavidson2581]

That is one awesome foot.I don't have one but I'm thinking hard about getting one.

[@kellyhipkins5616]

Thank you so much for sharing

[@80sforever3]

It is so hard to find picot foot & rolled hem foot. Would love to see their subtle differences. Flat hem foot are everywhere, some seller even advertise them as rolled hem foot

[@SewingPartsOnline]

We have a video on the differences. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKi1lohufcZ9pq8 If you need help finding one, please let me know your model number and I can see if we have one available. 😊

[@vidyapatel5901]

Thank you . Your tips are very helpful.👍

[@AtemusQueen234]

The fabric is 100% polyester and has a lightweight Hand: Soft There is going to be embroidery on the skirts as well different design on each skirt. Would the hemmer foot be better ??

[@kpoulos42]

I have an older machine that has a picot foot that is very different. It pokes a hole at the hemline as it stitches so the finished edge has picot points. Does that have another name now?

[@mehershawoan2361]

Hello That's a wonderful tutorial. But what is the difference between picot foot and hemmer foot in appearance?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Meher Shawoan Hi! I must say, the name of the feet make it difficult to tell the difference. The picot hem is fabric that is rolled, not folded and secured with a zig zag stitch. It has a 3 dimensional appearance. The rolled hem is really fabric that is folded twice to make a narrow hem. They both use a funnel system to create the hem and the feet look VERY similar.

[@MsKreynold]

Can you achieve this same look with a zig zag stitch using a hem foot?

[@luciatat4084]

Could it be done with a straight stitch? I don’t like that finish of the zig zag stitch very much for a hem…

[@juwairiamethakar1066]

Thankyou very clearly explained 🙂

[@Melatina77]

If you use a straight stitch, would that give you a rolled edge hem?

[@AtemusQueen234]

I am making a bridal style skirt, and the fabric is a lightweight fabric. D you recommend to use the picot foot or the hemmer foot? Thank you for the video

[@saheranoman]

Very very helpful

[@ramanpreet8905]

When I did Pico in my machine the lower tension is loose what to do

[@jpvintage]

What model is your Brother machine? I sure have learned a lot from your videos, thank you for all of the tutorials!

[@SewingPartsOnline]

My pleasure and thank you for watching! The Brother I use is the LB6800PRW - it's a fantastic machine!

[@SewingPartsOnline]

You can use either foot, but the picot foot uses a zigzag stitch. The hemmer foot uses a straight stitch. Is the fabric chiffon?

[@hemapriyatrb]

Useful video. Thank you for posting

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Thank you for watching!

[@drrenukumaript4413]

Is this foot can be used for all the sewing machines? Wht would be the cost of each different types foot?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

I believe my stitch length was 3.5 and stitch length was 1.4.

[@priyansharastogi6689]

can you pls tell how many mm picot foot can be used with brother jx2517 sewing m/c

[@SewingPartsOnline]

I do not have a guaranteed option; however, my best suggestion would be: www.sewingpartsonline.com/pico-foot-brother-xa7872002.aspx This snap-on picot foot is a 1/8". I do not see a larger option available. I hope that this helps.

[@dogandcatmum]

hi would this be ok on a jersey skirt hem? the skirt is full round one thanks great video.

[@catiecheek7488]

Would you recommend this for chiffon?

[@Acidjordain]

can you use a straight stitch with the foot?

[@hsdesai12]

Hi I have just bought a singer machine 'promise' model 1412 (Australia) I would like to do the picot stitch on a silk scarf ...which model number do I buy? Can't find it on your site. The company book says model number 6800008 but don't think that looks same as what you are showing here...please help

[@SewingPartsOnline]

S H Desai Hi! This is the picot foot I use in the video - it will work with you singer machine: www.sewingpartsonline.com/snap-on-picot-foot-sa164.aspx

[@hsdesai12]

Sewing Parts Online I bought this and somehow it still flattens the edging before making the zig zag stitch. Wonder what is the difference. I am in Australia n buying from the site you have shown is not cost effective. What is the part number that I can ask for when I call the local singer shop. I want to send you a picture but am not ure how to send it

[@SewingPartsOnline]

S H Desai Hi! I'm so sorry you foot is giving you trouble. Send a picture to sarah @ sewingpartsonline.com and we can try to figure it out together. What is the letter etched on the front of the foot your using? The reason I ask is because you might be using a Rolled Hem Foot, which looks EXACTLY like the picot foot, but creates a flat hem, not the "rolled" picot hem (clear as mud, right?). The part number for the picot foot is SA164 - however, the Picot foot is manufactured by Brother, so a Singer-exclusive store might not sell it. But, they can definitely try to order one from you. Either way, send me a few pics and we'll work it out.

[@vickicarol1733]

That was spooky fabric. I got caught up in looking at it instead of the foot. Your stitch length was set at what? What about the width?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Catherine Lowton Hi! Jaguar is a sewing machine brand that has a variety of presser feet that our compatible with it. Is there a particular foot you were interested in?

[@shantasrivastava2183]

Is the Rolled hem foot and the Picot foot are same?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Shanta Srivastava Hi! The names are kind of backwards because a Picot foot really creates a "rolled" hem, whereas the Rolled hemmer foot creates a flat hem, the is turned under twice. A picot foot has the dimensions of small pipping, if that makes any sense.

[@shantasrivastava2183]

Thanks for clarifying that. It makes perfect sense.

Im not sure I understand the difference between the picot foot and the hemmer/rolled hem foot. All the ones I've compared online seem to look exactly the same!

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Hi, Lacey! They do look exactly the same. The difference is the bottom of the foot. The Picot Foot has a rounded channel and the Hemmer Foot has a square shaped channel. The Rolled Hem foot creates a flat hem and the Picot Foot creates a "rolled" hem. Clear as mud, right?

isn't this pivot foot the same thing as a rolled hem foot?

[@SewingPartsOnline]

Very similar, but the Picot Foot "rolls" the fabric using a zig-zag stitch. The Rolled Hem Foot actually folds the fabric and creates a flat hem. Really, the Picot Foot should be called a "rolled hem foot" because it creates a "rolled" hem! Super confusing, right?
