Default 1/4 inch foot for featherweight

I just bought a featherweight and am looking for a 1/4 inch foot for her. Anyone have a recommendations on which foot to buy and where I can get one?

Thanks,

Little Foot! It's clear plastic (easy to see) and marked all around in bright red. I love mine. Although I don't have a FW, I have one on my 301 and it does a great job, every time. You can probably get it online for about $20, more or less, but I got mine in a local sewing and vac shop. I'm very happy with it. Of course, if you have younger eyes, you may not be so picky.

Try April 1930's. That is where I got mine.

Look at Sew Classic. I purchased the 1/4 foot with the fence from them. Works great on my Featherweight.

We got one like this some time back at Sew-Classic.

I've used it on a number of machines and it works very well.

I like that it's metal rather than plastic.

Yup, the clear is great to see perfectly. I do NOT like the metal feet with guides. It's a personal preference but the Little Foot is my favorite 1/4" out of the bunch I own.

I tried going to your link using cut and paste, but nothing came up! Could you give us the link again or am I doing something wrong?
