Pied ouvert pour broderie #20C

The 21st section of the BERNINA presser-feet online tutorial is about the open embroidery foot no. 20/20C. The open embroidery foot differs from embroidery foot no. 6 in so far as it has a wider space between the toes, affording a clear view of the stitching area and the needle. The wedge-shaped indentation on the sole allows compact and bulky stitches to pass under the foot without inhibiting the feeding of the fabric. The open embroidery foot no. 20 is particularly suitable for appliqué, Richelieu embroidery, following patterns and lines, curves and corners, and attaching various types of tapes, e.g. ribbons or elastics. The open embroidery foot no. 56 comes with sliding sole for materials that tend to stick.
