    Anyone buy a walking foot for this machine? I have been checking online and the prices are all over the place. One place wanted 70.00 for it. Was wondering where you purchased yours and what you paid? $70.00 seems a little steep.....Thanks for your help, Michele

    I have seen a brand called Distinctive feet I belive it is a generic for all machines. I have used the quilting foot and their 1/4 foot for my juki I have not had any problems. I have see their walking feet for around $25 just something to look into.

    I paid $29.95 for a Janome for my Elna. It's a lot quieter than the generic one it replaced. I overheard the LQS owner tell a customer they were going up with the next shipment. I've seen short shank ones online for $24.95 several places.

    get the part number off the brother site or from your manual and then go to amazon.com. You will find it a LOT less.

    I bought the same one at joanns for $12.00 and it's great. doing rag quilt with batting and denim and it walks it right through on my SE350. I can't see paying alot of money for one when this works fine.

    I just purchased the Even Feed/Walking Foot w/Quilt Guide from Amazon for $15.00. I have already used, works great! I am now looking for the Open Toe Quilting "O" (SA187) for the SE400 also.
