Janome Binder Foot (for 9mm machines)

The binder foot is used to apply pre-folded bias binding tape or bias tape you have cut yourself to the edge of fabric in one easy step - it allows you to easily attach binding. You can use pre-folded bias binding tape, or bias tape you’ve made yourself. It is equipped with a small funnel to fold and guide the binding over the fabric edge before it reaches the needle and can be used with either zigzag or decorative stitches as well as straight stitch. 10 mm to 14 mm bias tape can be used.

• Start by cutting the end of the binding at a 45° angle.
• Then, attach thread tails to the point, to assist you in feeding the binding through the foot.
• Insert the point into the largest slot at the end of the funnel. Using the thread tails, pull the binding through the funnel until about 2” of it is behind the foot.
• Snap the foot onto the machine. On the touch-screen, choose a straight stitch and adjust the needle position as desired.
• As you start sewing, guide the fabric to keep it in the funnel, and guide the binding tape through the slot. And now you’re ready to add binding to any project!
