I have a singer sewing machine model 1 I am wanting to order a blind stitch foot. I don't seem to be able to locate can you help me?

How To Reverse Stitch On A Singer Sewing Machine Correctly

Step 1. Press the reverse button

• Refer to the Singer manual of the specific machine you have
• Please find the button with the U-shaped arrow, typically at the front of the sewing machine, or check your manual for where it's located
• Press the reverse stitch button and start sewing

Step 2. Start sewing

• Hold the material as the sewing machine sews backward and stop it manually by taking your foot off the pedal
• Deactivate the reverse stitch function by pressing the button again
• Be careful not to hit the thread plate to avoid bunching
• If you accidentally press the wrong button, turn off the Singer sewing machine and turn it on again to reset

You may want to contact Singer directly. They will be able to determine if the flower stitch unit is compatible with your machine.
According to the Singer site, it doesn't look like it is:

Flower Stitch Presser Foot Attachment

This one will fit any low-shank machines:

Here are some sites that will help you determine what shank your machine has:

Once you know the shank of your machine, you can then try to locate a flower stitch accessory that will work on your type of shank.

The 6217C doesn't have a blind hem foot. You need the General Purpose (low-shank) foot, the General Purpose Needle Plate and the blind hem guide (part number 381213). The guide gets secured by the screw that holds the presser foot shank. This site, http://cart.jennys-sewing-studio.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=473 , has the blind hem guide available. This metal foot might fit your machine: http://cart.jennys-sewing-studio.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=530_73_101_164_168&products_id=463 .

I hope this helps.

(who has a similar blind hem stitch guide for my Singer Touch & Sew. I haven't gotten the hang of it yet.)

Most sewing machines come with a blind hem stitch. It is the one that looks like several small zig-zags then occasionally a large one, or several straight stitches then a large zig-zag. Either will result in an invisible hem.

Some machines have a special foot but it is not necessary, mine does not. There is however a special way of folding the fabric.

Hope this straightens things out for you!

You will need a blind stitch foot. I believe that your machine requires a short shank foot. If you already have the foot, you can refer to the Singer sewing book for step by step or go to YouTube for a video of the process (the video uses a different machine but the process is the same) :

I downloaded your manual for free at www.singerco.com and I be darned, I see why you are baffled. Call Singer at 1-800-4singer and ask them to tell you. This is a first for me to see in a machine that is not that old, my 45 year old Kenmore has the blind stitch setting. There has to be some answer to this.

If you mean a blind hem foot, you can go to www.brother-usa.com and look at their accessory catalog. It is just a presser foot that has an adjustable screw to set for an edge guide. You don't have to have a Brother any low shank blind hem foot will fit. You can order from them, 1-877-276-8437 or any online sewing machine parts place, ie. www.sewingpartsonline.com.

You can order from Singer at 1-800-4singer or ebay. On ebay they start at about $14 + $2 for shipping. Just put in "blind hem foot for Singer and you will see a variety of them. Take your pick. I don't know what Singer charges. JoAnn fabrics may carry them or a sewing machine retailer but anyway you do it, it is not expensive. Just remember that you have a low shank machine. Good luck and happy sewing.

Hi, well YES you DO need a special Foot, it is called, surprisingly enough a Genuine Brother® Accessory Blind Stitch Foot.
You can get it from Brother itself.

It sounds like it is making a blind stitch, does it look something like this? -----v-----v-----v-----v-----v If so it might be on the blind stitch setting instead of the straight stitch! ;-)
