A machine for sewing a binding to a vamp in making mocassins has a throad plate on which the pieces to be joined rest, a reed dog engageable with the work and having a rotary motion in the exit direction of the work and a second feed dog having an oscillating movement about an axis approximately perpendicular to the axis of the needle and synchronized with the movement of the first feed dog. The second feed dog cooperates with the first feed dog in moving the pieces to be joined and in penetrating between the folds so as to regulate the depth and width of the edge made on the mocassin. A further feature is that means operating in synchronism with the reciprocation of the needle is provided for lifting the presser foot from the work while it is being moved.
