Hey, this is a great idea. I'm too cheap to invest in a Teflon foot--haven't needed one yet, but I'll sure keep this tip in mind.

I've heard of 'teflon tape' to use like this, but I never did get around to buying any of it...now I'm glad I didn't. Can't wait to try this out. Thanks Guri!

Wow thankyou for a great suggestion! I am going to try it with clear elastic, my personal nemesis.

How amazingly simple and straighforward! Wonderful!

I did this after reading your tip and yes! it works. I sewed some clear elastic, something I had trouble with and voila, perfections. Thanks

Ah, great minds think alike! I used scotch tape on the presser foot, (the "disappearing" kind seems to have a very slick surface) to alter my $15 leather coat from Goodwill!

I recently made water proof rain pants for Xmas gifts and had a terrible time sewing and used waxed paper - now I will definitely use tape. Thanks!

you can also use plumbers teflon tape! :-)

The nice thing about this idea is it can be applied to any foot's underside, so you can get the features of a Teflon foot combined with other special features, such as blind hem or piping or edge stitching. Excellent tip!
