    Janome makes an open toe walking foot. it's a bit pricey but i think mine was money well spent.

    janome feet will usually work well on other brands. oddly, other brands usually don't work well on Janome. go figure. :lol:

    here's a site that carries open toe WF. i'm sure it isn't the only one.

    I don't think it helps you at all but my Bernina walking foot came with two different feet for the walking foot. A regular one and an open one. So they do exist, at least for some brands. Hope you can find one for your machine!

    Yesterday I ordered an open toe walking foot for my Brother. I really want it for my Singer. I am going to try it on the Singer. Who knows? It may work. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I have regular walking feet for both machines, but am new to machine quilting and think having greater visibility will help. Fingers crossed.
