    I got mine from Amazon, but i know Ebay has them as well. I suggest these as they will e better at cost and the descriptions usually show which machines they can be used on. Mine works on my Singer (all three of them) and my Janome. hope this helps

      I also got mine at Amazon. It's a great fit and pretty inexpensive.

          Any low shank foot should fit. It should just snap on the the piece that your other feet snap on to.

            I have that Distinctive 1/4" foot everyone is referencing from amazon. It works fine on my machine, even though Viking isn't listed as a compatible brand. In fact, I have several generic feet made by that company. I haven't been disappointed yet.

              The one I have fits a Brother, a Singer, my Pfaff and also my Babylock! I think I paid $16 for it.

                This foot looks like a possible option for you. I particularly like the fact that it indicates when you are 1/4" from the end of the material - so great when you are sewing a square and need to know when to stop.

                  Mine is marked like that, but it has a flange on the right for the quarter inch. I love it!

                    You'd think that were the case but I find that the feet with guide are not a true 1/4" - my experience is with Brother and with Baby Lock. So make sure you measure your seam after using the guide as it may be a bit bigger than 1/4". For many straight-line blocks that doesn't matter but anything with triangles may be off, at least in my experience.

                      This is the one I have. I have not had any problems with it, other than forgetting I am using it and I break a needle when I switch to a decorative or zig zag stitch! Baby Lock: 1/4" Quilting or Patchwork Foot

                      I also have the stitch in the ditch foot and like that just as well.

                          This is the one I have and it does not give me a straight stitch line. It's very wonky. I have a Babylock Espire.

                            Always test your 1/4" with any foot, even if sold as a 1/4" foot. I personally hate flanges, and agree their 1/4" is too generous!!

                              I also don't like the foot with the guide. Sometimes the fabric edges are not completely straight and the metal guide then messes up the seam. I prefer to use a straight stitch foot and one of those little plastic (purple) guides that stick onto the machine bed.
