I had ordered a plastic 1/4" foot for my pfaff 2144 because I thought that it would be easier to visualize turning points and seams butts, etc. I picked it up today and I have found another benefit to the new foot - it has flanges on both sides which make it ride along both feed dogs - no longer will fabrics be moved along by only the left hand feed dog when I am seaming. For anyone else who owns a pfaff - there are several other new feet availabe this year, including a plastic edge guided foot with a 5/8" clearance (general sewing) which I am thinking would be a good one to use for decorative topstitched finishes - I haven't checked yet whether the needle hole is 9mm or single needle size. jennellh
