This is where I got my Viking walking foot at a much cheaper price than anyone else. Easy to deal with - no problems. I even got free shipping.

I have purchased all of my Viking feet from them and paid $39 for my walking foot (have an older Viking). Of course maybe the newer feet are more expensive?? Anyway, I have always received my order within about 4 days time. I think it is free shipping for small items. Great online store!

I have purchased several Husqvarna feet from sewingstyle.com. They have a couple different 1/4" feet

FOr 1/4" piecing, I always use the edge stitching foot. It has a flange on the right side of the foot. I move the needle to the right to give me a 1/4" between the needle and the flange. Then I sew with my pieces lined up against the flange.

I have an old Designer 1 that's a workhorse. My advice is that before you buy a new Viking foot, check the one you have first, if it's a snap-on.

I paid $20 for one for my Pfaff and then found out I can change the needle position and guide at the edge of my regular foot. Another thing you can do is measure from the needle 1/4 inch and put down a think layer of tape to use as a guide. Painter tape (the blue stuff) works well and doesn't leave a mess behind when you take it up.
