My black SEWMOR 404 won't sew straight.

It starts off OK, then the fabric moves to the right. I've checked and adjusted the presser foot to feed dogs and they are as straight as I can get them.

Here's some pics:

Beginning, with the fabric guide set at 1/4".

At the end, you can see just how far the fabric has moved to the right.
This fabric twisting is bad enough that it makes it difficult to do piecing. And that is what I want to do with this machine.


The foot on the machine is a new one. The original one is chewed up on the bottom due to being run with no fabric under it. I'm concerned that the feed dogs might be damaged as well.

Other than the possible feed dog damage, is there something I'm missing or something else I can check?


Thanks,

Joe
