A ruler foot is intended to work with an acrylic ruler on a home sewing machine to mimic a long arm quilting process. The ruler foot attaches to the shank of your machine. Our ruler feet will work with our templates and many other templates you may buy. Scroll down to find your machine and determine which is the right foot, if you don't see your machine listed, you can use the measuring instructions below or email us at support@sewingbysarah.com to help you determine the best fit.
The ruler foot comes in three varieties, the most common are the super low shank and low shank feet.
