Brother SA157 five-guide cording foot
What this accessory does
The SA157 guides up to five narrow cords or decorative threads across the surface as you stitch them down. It suits a decorative band made of parallel lines, where feeding the cords individually by hand would make the spacing harder to maintain.
Brother identifies this as a 7 mm cording foot. Compare the machine model against Brother’s compatibility list and check the stitch in the instructions before planning a design that uses every guide.

Questions about this accessory
Does it enclose piping inside a seam?
Compare a piping foot for covered cord at a seam edge. This foot holds decorative cords at the surface for stitching.
Do the five guides mean the foot takes a 5 mm cord?
Five describes how many narrow cords the foot can guide. The separate 7 mm figure describes the machine stitch-width class.
What is the first thing to check on a sample?
Check that the selected stitch reaches the cords in the positions you intend to use and that the needle clears the foot.
