Frequently Asked Questions

Which Janome machines is this concealed zipper foot compatible with?

This foot is designed for Janome machines with a 9mm maximum stitch width, including the Continental M17, Continental M7 Professional, and Horizon Memory Craft series (8200 QC, 8900 QCP, 12000, 14000, and 15000 V2).

What is the difference between a concealed zipper foot and a regular zipper foot?

A concealed (or invisible) zipper foot has specialized grooves that guide the zipper coils and slightly unroll them just before the needle, allowing you to stitch extremely close to the zipper teeth. This creates an invisible finish where the zipper appears as part of the seam. A regular zipper foot is designed for standard exposed zippers.

Do I need to hand-baste invisible zippers before using this foot?

No, the Janome Concealed Zipper Foot eliminates the need for hand-basting. The foot's design guides the zipper precisely, allowing you to stitch accurately in one pass without pre-basting.

What fabric weights can I use with this concealed zipper foot?

This foot works with all fabric weights, from lightweight silk jersey to heavyweight wool suiting and tweed. The key is using an appropriate needle and thread for your fabric weight while the foot handles the zipper placement.

Is this foot included with my Janome machine or sold separately?

The Concealed Zipper Foot 9mm is typically sold as a separate accessory and is not included with most Janome machines as standard equipment. It's a specialty foot designed for sewists who frequently install invisible zippers in garment construction.
