I am looking of for ideas on how to store your different pressure feet. What I would like to find is something that I actually separate and label each area with name of pressure foot. Any good ideas?

My presser feet are stored in a floss box, one foot per section. It's not labeled because i can see what they are when the lid is up.

I store some of my feet in my machine, but the rest are in a shallow drawer in plastic ice cube trays.

I use flat plastic boxes that I think were intended to be fishing tackle boxes. They have adjustable compartments, so the larger walking feet can fit in as well.

Each machine does not have it's own box, though. They are separated into low shank, slant shank, and high shank feet since those are interchangeable among members of that "herd".

There was a thread on this some time back, but within the year..some excellent ideas there.. I ended up using a sewing basket for my l600P as its feet will not work with my other machines, and for the rest I used containers that were divided up for beading, but work well on feet, and are see thru.. I flipped the paper cover on the inside backwards and wrote the function of the foot on the paper to correspond. I kept my vintage feet separate . The larger pieces such as walking foot, and ruffler are in a divided shallow drawer in my desk,

I use one of those weekly pill dispener things. It's one that has two rows, am and pm. The front of the compartments are slightly curved, makes is easy to get the feet out.

Thanks for the chuckle. I had to open the thread to see if I needed to pay a pressure fee too, and why would I need to store it.
