From what I have read, you have to adjust the needle position to get a correct 1/4" seam. I was using the patchwork foot with mine ("O" foot) and then read about the "O2" foot which supposedly let you get a 1/4" seam without adjusting the needle. Wrong. My sister bought me the O2 and I still have to keep my needle in a certain spot that is not the default. I still like it though.
