The JanomeLife blog has a great write up for Janome machines: https://janomelife.wordpress.com/201...-using-rulers/

For the models (7700/8200/8900) that come with the convertible FMQ shank already, you can just buy the "frame foot set". If you don't have the convertible FMQ shank (QBH, etc), you need both a shank and a foot OR if non-Janome or other brand, you need a foot that fits that brand (that's where the Westalee foot comes in).

Oh, and note the warning from JanomeLife "Please note that Janome is not recommending the use of this Convertible Free motion foot and “ruler foot” attachment for machine models which have automatic presser foot lift as there is a chance that the foot could go up too high in the auto presser foot lift function and cause damage. Warranty will not cover damage caused by using these feet on models with Auto presser foot lift: Janome Mc12000, Mc15000 and Skyline S7."
