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.

    1. I've never looked at Halloween that way, I thought it was about honouring passed saints. But either way lets go with the 'Fall' theme, I totally think purple pumpkins would be cool. I sure am on FB you can click on the 'F' at the top right of this page and it will take you there.
