Abstract: A sewing machine presser foot assembly adapted for the dual function of setting a concealed zipper and closing the seam below the zipper. The presser foot assembly comprises a zipper foot, and a cording foot bar pivotally mounted for selective movement between a raised inoperative position alongside the zipper foot and a lowered operative position beneath the zipper foot. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, means are provided for maintaining the cording foot bar in either the raised or the lowered position.
