Using the Pfaff Bias Binder Foot to bind with bias tape is a simple and effective way to create smooth, neat fabric edges for a polished finish. This method works well for garments, quilts, and home décor projects, ensuring durability and a clean look. For best results, use unfolded bias tape measuring 24 mm (scant 1”) wide to achieve precise and even binding.
How to Use:
-
Attach the Bias Binder Remove the presser foot and securely attach the Bias Binder to your machine.
-
Prepare the Bias Tape Cut the beginning of the bias tape at a diagonal for easy insertion.
-
Feed the Tape Guide the bias tape into the scroll of the binder and pull it through to the back.
-
Adjust the Needle Position Position the binder and/or needle so that the stitch lands approximately 1 - 1.5 mm (1/16 inch) from the folded edge of the bias tape.
-
Start Stitching Sew about 25 mm (1 inch) along the bias tape to secure it before inserting the fabric.
-
Insert the Fabric Place the edge of the fabric between the bias tape edges into the slot of the binder. As you sew, the Bias Binder will automatically enclose the raw edge, creating a clean, professional finish.
Tip: For a more decorative effect, try using a zigzag stitch or a fancy stitch instead of a straight stitch. This not only adds a stylish touch but also provides extra durability, making your bias-bound edges both functional and visually appealing!

Note: These sewing machines* feature a 6 mm presser foot holder, while newer presser feet are designed to fit 8 mm holders. As a result, there may be a small gap between the presser foot and the holder when using newer attachments. To ensure a secure fit and proper functionality, it is recommended to replace the 6 mm presser foot holder with an 8 mm holder when using these updated presser feet.
The automatic needle threader cannot be used on these models**
