You might consider joining the Yahoo group for the Brother 1500. You will find LOTS of help and info there.
I'm not entirely sure which foot you all are talking about. I have one clear foot that came with my Babylock that doesn't have any metal on it.
But the thing I want to say is that the feet are not as interchangeable - sometimes - as what some people (and even sellers - like eBay or even sewing stores) say they are....
I put a video on YouTube that shows the differences between a Janome foot and a Babylock one....

Hope that helps.
