Bernina #31 Pintuck 5-groove

The BERNINA Pintuck Foot with 5 Grooves #31 helps you sew even, decorative pintucks in medium-weight fabrics. Its grooved sole guides previously sewn tucks, helping you build neatly spaced rows of texture on garments and sewing projects. Use a double needle with spacing that matches the foot’s grooves, up to 3 mm.

Key Features:

• Decorative Pintucks — Specially suited to creating even pintucks in medium-weight fabrics.
• Five-Groove Sole — Guides existing pintucks to help maintain consistent spacing between rows.
• Guided Fabric Feed — The grooves accommodate raised tucks as the fabric moves beneath the foot.
• Double-Needle Sewing — Use a double needle with needle spacing corresponding to the groove width, up to 3 mm. Check your machine’s double-needle requirements before sewing.
• Compatible Models — Available in Old Shank (530–1630) and 5.5 mm versions; see variant selector above. Match the attachment style and selected version to your machine.

How to Know Which Foot You Need:

• Old Style / Old Shank — Has a dual-prong attachment. Select Old Shank (530–1630) for compatible older BERNINA machines in this range.
• New Style — Has a solid front at the attachment. Check your machine’s accessory guide before selecting the 5.5 mm version.
• Check Stitch Width and Dual Feed
  • 5.5 mm — The standard #31 foot is offered in the 5.5 mm variant.
  • 9 mm / C Version — A C variant is not offered in this listing. Check your machine’s accessory guide for compatibility with the standard #31 foot.
  • Dual Feed / D Version — A D variant is not offered in this listing. The standard #31 foot does not add Dual Feed functionality.
• Confirm Your Machine — Physical fit alone does not add a machine feature. Check your machine model, attachment style, and supported features against the selected variant.
