Brother SA185 1/4" Foot with Guide

As a new quilter I was really nervous about keeping my 1/4" seam allowance because I had heard how important it was to keep them even. When I came across this foot I decided to give it a try. I just completed my first quilt and I absolutely LOVE this foot!!! It makes keeping the correct seam allowance a breeze. I highly recommend it for piecing your quilt together!

This works great. It makes it much easier to stick to the 1/4 seams needed in my quilting projects.

I'm making a quilt and I needed this to make sure my seams were only 1/4 inch wide. This works perfect and so easy to use.. I,m very pleased with this attachment and the price was good also. I know I will get a lot of use out of it. I have another 1/4 inch foot but it doesn't have the little guide that fits at the end of the material you are sewing ,so this is a lot easier and more accurate. I will probably bordering more attachments in the future from this location.

This foot really does do a perfect quarter inch seam. I have been quilting for a long time and I've gotten fairly good at doing a quarter inch seam by following the edge of my presser foot. I thought i'd try this foot just for fun. I'm Impressed! With that guide, the fabric stays a bit more stable so your stitching goes more perfectly straight! I plan to use it quite a bit! (I have the same foot without the guide and i don't like it at all.) After reading other reviews, i was a bit nervous about it not doing a quarter inch seam needed for quilting. Not to worry! I find sewing with the needle in the center position, the stitching measures 1/4th inch. The Same Seam I've been sewing to quilt and get the pattern to come out right. It can do a more scant 1/4th inch seam if you bump it over one notch or it can do a REAlly scant seam if you bump it over 2 notches. There are occasions when the fabric has been cut a little too small and that will be useful. Fortunately, I can set my brother sewing machine to turn on in the center position so i don't have to worry about breaking a needle. It's a great little foot. Try it!

Best $3 I’ve ever spent! I was having such a hard time quilting and making those perfect 1/4” seams. Yes, I had to wait what seemed like a lifetime for this to come in the mail...but it was worth it. I’m off to start a new quilt! Word to the wise. Adjust your needle before using! I didn’t and luckily my needle didn’t break. I’m using a brother cs6001. I just have to set the stitch to 01 and remember to reset it when I turn it back on.

I was a bit skeptical about ordering this presser foot because of the extremely low price, especially comparing it to the well known brands of presser feet. Usually you get what you pay for. This generic quarter-inch foot, made in China, is a beautifully machine-finished, high quality piece of equipment. It works perfectly on my Singer 5050C with a generic snap-on adapter. I'm very happy I got it. No need to spend more money. Buy this one!

This makes sewing so much easier! I'm not an expert sewer by any means. No matter what I did, I wasn't able to get a nice, even, consistent quarter inch seam. When you're piecing together a quilt, this can really throw you off! This foot made it an absolute breeze to sew accurate seams. The guide works wonderfully and takes a lot of stress out of sewing.

I love this foot!! Finally, after years of frustration (with not always having a reliable 1/4" seam for my quilt-piecing) I can relax and enjoy my sewing!! I have tried taping a guide (lots of quilters put masking tape on their machines) and have purchased other so-called 1/4" feet for my machines. Those methods relied on guiding by eye. This foot FEEDS your fabric in at the right position, so your seam never widens to past 1/4" and it is hard to make it too narrow, but if you do, that's easily fixed by sewing over it....NO MORE RIPPING to fix my seams!! HOORAY!!!! However, I do have to remember with my new Brother sewing machine, to reset the needle to the CENTER position each time I turn it on, or I will break a needle. My other machine, a Viking, has its default position in the center, so no problem. I am assuming I can use this foot on either machine. Will try when they are both "staying at the same house" :)

Love this 1/4" guide foot. It was made by Brother for Brother machines, but I'd heard that Brother feet fit Juki machines. I bought this for my Juki F600, and it works perfectly. Have tried all the quick fixes to use with the machine to get a perfect scant 1/4" seam, and they all fell short. NOW I can do it.
