Produces a smock-like gather... a fun shirring embellishment for your sewing!

Shirrer Attachment fits low, vertical shank Singer Sewing Machines including the 15, 66, 99, 127, 128, 185, 192, 201, 221 and 222 Featherweight, 306, 319, 328, etc...

Using this foot has made a drastic difference in the ease of shirring. It’s called a Shirring Foot, or sometimes referred to as the Gathering Attachment.  By loosely hand-winding your bobbin with elastic thread you can instantly create shirred fabric with which to use for dress bodices, elasticized cuffs and more.





I suggest that when you pull your bobbin elastic thread up through the stitch plate that you also allow the upper needle thread to be pulled down through the attachment.  Then, as you start out your rows be sure to hold both threads taut to secure the stitching row.



This particular attachment will fit all low, vertical shank machines including the Singer 15, 66, 99, 127, 128, 185, 192, 201, 206, 221 & 222 Featherweight, 306, 319, 328, etc... as well as all non-Singer machines with a low, vertical shank - new and old alike.



After you shirr the fabric, steam the stitched rows with the iron on heavy-steam. I just barely hold the iron over the fabric and the shirring shrinks up quickly creating elasticity.

or forgo the elastic thread, use regular sewing thread in the bobbin and make a tactile quilt square for baby!
