This embroidery foot for use with 9mm rotary models 1630 and 180 allows the use of the wider decorative stitches these machines offer. It has a wide variety of uses in decorative work, including embroidery, appliqué, satin stitch, monograms, quilting and cut work. 
The front of the foot is open, giving clearer visibility 
The bottom of the foot has a wedge shaped indentation, which allows even satin stitching to glide under the foot without dragging. 
The angle in the indentation makes it possible to turn curves easily 
The toes of the foot are shorter, compared to a normal zigzag foot, for greater manoeuvrability while sewing (you can turn the fabric more easily for smoother stitching lines, an important asset when embellishing fabric)
