I broke a low shank Elna jumping foot on my 201, in theory it should have worked but it didn't. I would recommend the small Singer foot #121094 or what you can find in the Featherweight shop or at Sew Classic, they have tested the feet they sell on the Featherweight and it will work. There are a couple of ebay sellers with freemotion feet for the Featherweight too.
Thanks Mickey. Wha gets me is there is a Youtube with a big foot being used on a featherweight and the company said it should work.
To be honest,I am not sure what a low shaft measures. Is it a standard length?
