I have to move my needle over 2 spots to get a real scant 1/4". It used to bother me but now I'm so used to it that it's like second nature.

I bought the Little Foot, and it is a perfect 1/4" for me, if I bump my needle once to the left, it is a perfect scant 1/4" :D:D:D
The feet with the blade/guide on it doesn't work for me either, my fabric either goes under it or bunches up right next to it :( |

I use the regular foot and change the needle position. That way I have more control in the feed dogs.

I think I've very lucky, I have a 35 year old Viking with 1/4..... so very thankful

My SQ9000 has a 1/4 in. foot and it is perfect, I also had this same type of foot with my old Brother and have had no problem keeping a 1/4 in. seam at all. :D
