Default Piecing with a FW

I recently acquired a FW and it only has the original foot. I want to do my piecing with this machine and I feel that I need either a 1/4" foot or a guide. What I want to know from those of you who piece with your FW is what you feel is your best way of sewing an accurate 1/4" seam. (regular 1/4" foot, 1/4" foot with the metal piece built in, guide that screws to the machine bed, or a combo?) Thanks a heap for your wisdom. Nancy

My Husq +1 really does not like to start a seam without a leader or paper under the start. It has a manuel thread cutter and I have an idea it is designed to start with the threads still in the cutter. I've tried it and no birds nest tangle if I do. I haven't sewn that way because the threads tend to be in the way. N
