Thank goodness that someone else knows that scant 1/4 inch seam not only has no definition, but if it did exist would boil down to how thick the threads in your fabric are. Give us all a break, Quilters, and stop obsessing over the width of a thread! froggyintexas

I think if nothing else, this device would allow someone to get a consistent seam more easily no matter what the size. I think it's a great find!

'FOR ME' what i liked about it is it went further up the bed of the machine. i worked w/it today and again, 'FOR ME' i liked it.

I use index cards. Turn the wheel to lower the needle into one of the lines. Look to the right to see how far off your foot is. (edge of foot should be exactly on the line to the right.) If it needs adjustment, adjust your needle (right or left).

This is also great if trying to achieve a scant 1/4".

Every machine has a different needle placement for a true 1/4". (I don't have to use the 1/4" foot, which isn't very accurate anyway.)

Oh so true- and something we sometimes rue!!!

Amen to that!

I bought it last year at the Sewing Expo. Though it measures great, it won't stick to the bed of my Viking machine as it is too round. Bummer.
