Here is my block board, it sits quite nicely on the Featherweight table. I have found that I really like that little machine for piecing. Here is the finished block:

I have Juki TL2010 machine and it has a 1/5 foot, which is actually the same as a scant 1/4. I tried to find them for my other brands of machines and it seems Juki is the only one that makes it. Its a longer shank so will not fit my other machines. I found using a scant quarter seam is the only way I can get these blocks to come out to the right size. I like your block board. Glad it is helping. Your block looks good!
