Bernina 1/4" Patchwork Foot #37

The Bernina 1/4" Patchwork Foot #37 is the standard patchwork foot for Bernina 5.5 mm and 9 mm machines. It sews accurate 1/4" (6 mm) or 1/8" (3 mm) seam allowances, which are the most common measurements in quilt piecing and patchwork assembly.

Side Markings and Grooved Sole

Three evenly spaced markings on the side of the foot (each 1/4" apart) help you position fabric pieces for square insertion during patchwork. A narrow groove on the flat underside acts as a thread channel, keeping stitches smooth and reducing thread buildup. For quilters who want a version with a built-in edge guide, see Patchwork Foot with Guide #57.
