Which Foot To Use? - Annie's www.anniescatalog.com/pages/which_foot.html When presser foot is down, measure the distance from the bottom of foot to screw -hole that holds the foot onto the presser bar. Singer slant is for slant needle machine only. A high shank machine measures approximately 1 1/4" from the screw to the ... All Berninas need "Low Shank Adaptor" and use generic low shank feet. My Kenmore is a 1973 zigzag. With distinctive brand usually they fit all low shank or all high shank. I have found many feet on amazon.com that fit my vintage Kenmore. If it says all Kenmore...it fits. Have Fun!

I have a short shank Singer and it works fine , I would think if your machine uses other "generic " short shank type feet it would be fine

The company web sit may have that info. Meantime, flatten it in vise and maybe use a washer over it. A local machine shop would make a better one for a couple bucks

I do not own a Kenmore. I have a Juki. It fits machines that accept snap-on presser feet. The foot works fine.

I have no idea. It is an OEM foot for standard Singer sewing machines, I don't know if sergers use the same foot. You could probably get a part number for the standard foot for your machine from Singer's web site, if you no longer have the paper manual.

I am not familiar with Janome machines. However, you only need to know if the machine has a low, high, or slant shank. You can probably use your favorite search engine to find something which would either tell you, or have pictures of each type of shank. If your machine has a low shank, then this presser foot should work, but if it has a high shank, you would need to find a high-shank presser foot. Most machines are low-shank machines. I did look at a picture of the 8050, and to me, the shank looks "normal," which would make it a low shank machine, in which case this foot should fit. Hope this helps you.

most new machines for home use are low shank machines, what make and model is yours? It would be easier for us to tell you if it would work. It makes Quilting a breeze as well as working with slippery fabrics.

I don't know if they will fit but from what I've found out from researching if your machine was made after 1980 they should fit. You can purchase a shank adapter. Amazon carries them. I bought one from my local sewing machine shop. It was not a fabric store but a small mom and pop shop that sells all kind of sewing machines and parts. If they won't fit your machine you can always go the route I took. I feel the quality is good with this product. I received my presser feet before the due date!

Lay your machine on it's side and look on the bottom of your machine. That's what I did and there is a sticker with the model and serial number there.

Hello Fannie: I just had the same problem. I sew sometimes eight hours a day and the presser foot shank will wear out after several months. The answer to your question is SEWING PARTS ONLINE. I just received my shipment yesterday. Take my advice, order more than one. The cost is 5.99 per shank plus shipping and handling. They ship fast, too.

I'm not sure about that particular model but just took the chance that it would fit my sewing machine. It said it fit all low shank snap ons and luckily it fit my machine. I have a brother and am very happy I took the chance and it worked out for me. A very good foot to have and I wasn't out alot if it didn't fit.

I did not keep that sewing machine so I do not know if you can change the presser feet out. I wanted a more heavy duty machine and even though they described it as being something that would do seveal different things once I received it I realized that it was more like a childs beginner sewing machine. It did not have a regular sewing machine foot. It was a small plastic one and it is very small machine so if you are wanting to sew more than the basic materials I don't think it will do it. Sorry but maybe this will give you a little more information about it.

There is a converter for tall shank machines, so you could use this with your machine. But I would get the converter first. I've seen them on eBay and you could check out goldstar tools on the web.

I have an older Kenmore, I believe low shank machine, and it works beautifully.
