Default 1/4" Seam using Featherweight.

Hi,
I love my Featherweight. As everyone who owns one knows they sew a great seam. But I can't seem(haha) to get a scant 1/4" seam with it. The foot that comes on it is way too narrow to use as a guide for the cloth. I bought a foot that's supposed to sew a 1/4" seam, but if you use the guide on it, it is way too wide.
I use my newer machine because I can move the needle to get the precise seam I want.
How do all the FW enthusiasts do it?

Also, I took it to a meeting one time and planned to sew the binding on by QOV while there. Well, that little machine just wanted no part to that.

Any suggestions?
