The feeder is designed in a manner to be friction-engaged with a fabric and to perform the feeding movement and adjacent to a needle moving region. In addition, the feeder has a base body, and the feeding section is fix-connected with a feeder carrier through the base body. A feeder wall is arranged under the feeder section and adjacent to the needle moving region. The feeder wall is designed in a manner to extend to the side of the needle being away from a stitch forming tool which interacts with a needle during a sewing process when the feeder is attached.
