Sewing Machine Presser Feet

Standard, adjustable and invisible zipper feet

Choose by the closure you are installing and the side the needle needs to reach. A bulky seam or a narrow allowance can change the foot you want even on the same machine.

A standard foot leaves room beside the teeth

A regular zipper foot lets you run a stitch beside zipper teeth. A model that shifts from side to side is useful when you need to sew both tapes or sew near piping. Check whether you reposition the foot, the needle, or both. The controls and mounting differ by machine.

A concealed-coil foot guides the coil underneath

The JUKI HZL invisible zipper foot uses a groove to lift and guide the coil. Use a concealed zipper with the instructions for that exact foot. On the first seam, check the stitch placement on scrap so you can see whether the zipper closes freely and the seam covers the coil.

Check what you already have for uneven layers

If you use Janome’s AcuFeed Zipper Foot ED, confirm the single AcuFeed holder and the model list. The foot is one part of that setup. If you have the standard holder and need only a regular zipper seam, compare the ordinary Zipper Foot E listed for your machine first.

Guide questions

What should I compare for a zipper next to piping?

Compare side clearance and adjustment. An adjustable zipper foot can place the needle beside a raised edge, while a piping foot uses a groove sized for its cord.

Will the Janome ED sole work with the twin holder?

Janome calls for the single holder for part 202128007. Verify the exact holder before ordering the foot.

Where should I look first if my needle sits too far from the tape?

Check whether the documented setup repositions the foot or the needle, then test clearance on scrap.

Which accessory suits the job?

  1. Foot E gives clearance beside ordinary zipper teeth on documented 9 mm Janome models.

  2. The clear JUKI foot guides a concealed coil underneath.

  3. Use the single-holder ED sole when the setup calls for AcuFeed.
