Ruffler Foot Made Sew Easy It's Hands Free!

If you've ever used a ruffler foot you will know you need to guide your fabric carefully.

I've been making a Victorian Gown. That means lots of ruffley goodness. I have about 150 meters of ribbon I'm using on this project most of which I've been pleating using my sewing machines ruffler foot. 
Carefully guiding that much yardage through would drive me insane!

I needed a way to make it easy and fast without needing a lot of concentration.

I needed to automate guiding that ribbon through.

It's so easy and simple and effective I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier.

      Thanks Tara. The bright metallics on the wings are pretty spectacular when you get to catch a glimpse of them.

    It's like they need an air traffic controller! I'm picturing them all yelling at each other, "George I told you to wait until I was clear!" "Fred get out of the way!" "You two better move it, I'm coming in hot!" (I haven't had my coffee yet this morning, so I might be a bit loopy ;)

    thank you for sharing with us again this week!
