Same thing happened to me several yrs. ago. I paid $50.00 for that foot. I have a Kenmore. I bought it at a Quilt,sewing machine shop in WestPalm Beach, FL. as I lived there at that time. Mine broke in the same place. Because of the kind of plastic you couldn't glue it. My husband who is a DIY can do things I wouldn't even attempt. made me another piece out of metal. It worked very well but,I ordered a new one from Sears For a lot less. Used the repaired one until I got the new one. Still have it and It works fine. Sorry it broke if it was fairly new I would ask for a replacement. BillsBonBon
