Foot 18

Feltscaper 
SA180S 

Optional PQ foot accessory used for making felted 
projects. 

Machine Set-Up: 

Place feed dogs in down position before you install 
the Feltscaper. 

Make sure the machine is turned 

off before you install this accessory. The felting 
needles are very sharp. 

Follow the installation 

setup that comes with the accessory to ensure that 
the felting needles clear the sides of the needle 
felting foot and adjust the height to clear your 
materials.  

Materials Needed for Sample: 

Wool tweed, roving, wool needlepoint wool 

General Sewing Directions:

Guide the work under the foot at a steady speed and movement. Arrange the roving/wool thread and 
anchor it with the needles. You may want to turn off the needle down button to make it easier to move 
from place to place. Adjust the Feltscaper “foot” level as you add more levels of yarn if your project 
doesn’t move easily under the unit. Empty the lint box frequently as you work. Keep your fingers away 
from the foot. 
 

Specific ULT Sample Directions: 

The sample used multi-color roving twisted in loops and anchored with the Feltscaper. Form other loops 
with 100 per cent wool needlepoint Persian yarn and anchor with the needles. Form a bow with the yarn 
and tack it down.
