Do any of you have a "Little Foot" for your machine?

A lady I did a trade with from another board told me about these... she loves hers.
I found them on the Little Foot website (www.littlefoot.net) and they are $19.95. I think it would be well worth it. I think when I can I will order one.

The Little Foot® was designed as an aid for quilters to obtain consistant 1/4" seam allowance. The right side of the foot is axactlt 1/4" to the right of needle center. By aligning your fabric with this edge for every seam, you will achieve a consistant seam allowance. The left side is wider to cover more feed dogs for better fabric control.

Do any of you have one?

I don't have one Sherry, because my 1/4 inch seam allowance is built into my computer on my sewing machine. I push a button and I have my 1/4 inch seam.

I think they would be well worth it though, because once again I can't stress how important that 1/4 inch seam allowance yet. You ladies will probably get sick of hearing me say this but its the true. Just make sure it will fit your machine.

Yes, that foot came with my machine

Oh I wish I could afford one right now. Would be so much nicer. I don't know how accurate I will be sewing with this piece of tape on my machine.
Thanks you guys.

I think I have that!!! I had lots of little feet, When I moved here i misplaced the little drawer to my machine with the ziipper foot and stuff, but that is the one I always use i think!

Thanks Sherry! I may have to spend the money on that one!

Edited to add: wahh!!!!

they don't make it for my machine! It says to write them if it is not listed.

guess I will have to!

I don't have one on my machine, probably because of how old it is, but the standard foot width is 1/4".

Here is a picture of the "Little Foot".

I've got one- came with my machine. Sherry, if you can't get the foot, they do sell 1/4" tape that you can apply right to the fabric to get correct seam allowance. I'm sure you could re-apply several times before it lost it's stickiness.
