1/4" Quilting Foot

Quilting is a technique in which layers of fabric are joined together sometimes with batting (the middle layer with filling that adds warmth, puffiness and weight to the quilt) made by hand or machine with topstitching in diamonds, crisscross lines or other patterns. The quilting foot is also known as an even-feed foot or walking foot and is a specialized foot for sewing machine designed to evenly feed many layers of fabric through the machine during quilting process. There are many kinds of quilting foot in which the 1/4" quilting foot is designed for accurate 1/4" seam allowances in quilting. It may or may not have a guide, but it helps with even feeding of the fabric layers to prevent puckering and shifting of fabric layers which can occur while using a standard presser foot. These are generally easy to attach and use.
