Since I did not know if my machine was a "low shank" I thought I would share this:

Measuring the Shank:

Measure the shank with the presser foot lowered. The shank is the distance between the bottom of the foot and the screw. The measurement on a low shank machine is three quarters of an inch and on a high shank machine is one and one quarter inches.

This is an easy way to get a consistent quarter inch seam. I love this foot and can't believe that I quilted for so long without one. I was unsure whether this would fit my machine (a Janome with drop-in bobbin), since the description here doesn't specify, but I emailed the seller directly from their website and got a response back very quickly. Works perfectly!

The attachment fits perfectly. It performs the task as it was designed to do. I received the product within the time span allotted. The product has made a world of difference with seam allowance accuracy.

While this gizmo helps guide my quilting fabric to sew 1/4" seam, the seam metal guide seems too flexible, thus, doesn't keep the fabric straight to guide along; but it helps a bit.

This is a must have for quilters, especially those of us that are beginners. I was working on my first quilt and having troubles with that quarter-inch seam. I purchased this foot in hopes it would help me. It arrived very quickly and only took me a few seconds to put it on my Singer Futura CE-100 machine.
I can now sew perfect ¼ seams with no problems. The metal edge is a HUGE help and I can rest assured on my future sewing projects that my seams will be perfect every time. I highly recommend this product.

This little guy keeps me from straying. With quilting most seams are sewn at 1/4 inch so this foot is necessary for my hours of sewing to be a success. Believe me as a beginner, I need all the help I can get.

I had a regular 1/4 inch foot for my machine, but found my seam allowances would still get off. I really like the edge that helps you guide the fabric and keeps it square so you come out with perfect quarter inch seams. It also is a great value considering how much I used to pay for feet for my machine when I bought them from the manufacturer. If you are a quilter this is a must have foot.

Great service and I use this 1/4 inch foot all the time.much better than the 1/4 inch foot that came with my janome and babylock.I am glad I bought it and will buy other distinctive feet.

The foot is as described and was shipped promptly as promised, but.... it just doesn't do the job. For what ever reason, the little guard doesn't entirely hold the fabric - fabric slips under it and the seam then is not even as hoped.

I really like the style of this foot, but found that when I sew over previously sewn 1/4 inch seams the left side of the foot picks up the raw edge and puckers it. I have to use a stileto to hold the seam down. This isn't bad if it is just a couple of seams -- but I just put together a top where I had to sew over many previously sewn raw edge seams.

I am still searching and think I have found a clear plastic one from another company that seems to work well. It doesn't have a guide -- but hopefully will find one that does have one.
