    I am also looking for a walking foot for a Penncrest 3000. Saw somewhere that it depends on the shank lenght for the right one. Does anyone make a universal foot for older machines?(1965) Thanks for your help,Jeanne

    I found a site that showed me how to put the walking foot on correctly, I have a Kenmore. You can view it on my website if any one else needs help with it. Thank goodness for the internet. There is nothing in my manual that shows you to put the white lever over the needle. Thank-you for all of you help!

    I use my IDT for everything. It works well when I piece.

    The walking foot has made a huge difference! I just quilted a fleece backing and it worked like a dream. Thanks for all of the suggestions/comments!

    Congratulations. Don't you just love getting a new gadget and it works so well?

    Mine is built in but I know people who rarely take theirs off the machine. It is great for sewing anything that has more than one layer of fabric.

    I also love the 1/4 seam foot...wish they would make a walking foot with the 1/4 inch attached to it.
