Do they make these for my machine to accomodate the latest type of quilting on a machine if you know what I mean?
I bought a walking foot that I can use on my Featherweight for example.
I hope this pic comes through.

I'm sorry to tell you that your walking foot for the FW won't work with the back clamping machine. For a 1/4" you need a seam guide on the bed of the machine.
You can see what I use on my Singer 99K.
