I wish there would be similar, narrow foot for the 301! But, alas there isn't:<

Thanks, Candace. I went to Aprils and that is just like the one I have from Quilt gal. I wonder why it works for some machines. The top of the plastic "clamp" (where the screw attaches it to the machine) is too fat and sits right where the bar gets round. I'm sick about it. I should have known better than to think I could get a modern walking foot for a vintage machine to work. I could have used the money I spent on a walking foot to go towards another machine! LOL!
