I have two, one black and one white. The quilt before last I set on machine to do a scant 1/4" and the other for a 1/4". I use a strip of mole skin to set my distance. After making the entire quilt I remember I had a 1/4" foot. Just finished another quilt with the black one. They are a joy to sew on. (I just bought a Janome 6600 and still used the FW to piece with) They are so easy to clean and oil. No fancy stuff to get in the way. DH found the white one at a garage sale, paid $75 bc they thought it was a kids machine. Paid $425 for the black one several years ago at a flea market. It was in pristine condition, made between 1935 -38.
