My dealer gave me a quarter inch foot,along with a few more, when I bought the 440QE. I use it for all piecing, so doesn't matter....they all get the same size seams.
Another thing I like is the built in bobbin winder....not only does it work fast, but my machine seems to go on & on, so far as using bobbin thread. She's a worker :-)

Has anyone tried this method? (Since the foot is over $30.
rather purchase material..LOL
