In practice, there will be many factors in the decision of whether or not to retain a building, including: Feed-dogs– They are the little jagged feet that sit under your presser foot. If you can lift and lower these on your machine you will be able to use your machine for free hand embroidery.

Start by pinching a few stitches at one end of the seam that you’re unhappy with. Pass the pointy tip of your seam ripper under these stitches and cut them using the sharp bridge in the tool. After you’ve loosen up a few stitches, put the tool away for now and using your hands grab the fabric on both sides of the seam and open the seam a little.Free machine stitching– this means to drop the feed dogs or apply a darning plate then attach a darning foot.
