Double needle walking foot sewing machines

A double needle machine sews two parallel lockstitch rows at once, at a fixed gauge from 1/8 to 1 inch or more. Automotive and furniture trim shops use it for French seams and decorative double topstitch; bag makers use it for handles and straps; canvas shops use it for flat felled seams on covers. The split needle bar lets you lift one needle at a corner so both rows turn cleanly.

Our 1560N and 1560N-7 are compound feed walking foot heads with two large hooks, so they take the same thick materials and heavy thread as our single needle flatbeds. The -7 adds automatic thread trimming and back-tack.
