Align the foot with the feeddogs and then tighten the screw.
Great advice. I would offer one thing first. Change the foot with another one of the same type first. Make sure that it is not a defective foot before starting the work. Especially if it was working fine and after a period of sitting time it is not. I would suspect something happened that I was not aware of. Like ones with small fingers and inquisitive minds.
