    Someone gave me a very good Kenmore Sewing Machine.....Case broken but machine in great working order...Can anyone tell me where to buy a 1/4" seam allowance foot for this machine? I have the model and serial numbers.
    Thanks

    I am guessing yours is a short shank. You should be able to use any short shank foot on your machine.

    Most Kenmores are short shanks...and any short shank foot will fit it... :)

    I have an older Kenmore and I went to a sewing/vacuum center. He sold me an adapter so that I can use the snap on feet from my Singers on it :D:D:D

    You may be able to pick one up at Sears. I have a Kenmore from 2007, and they have them there for my machine.

    If you can figure out what kind of shank it is , you might try a generic foot

    Hancocks carries universal long and short shank feet that fit most machines.
