Meanwhile, I ordered this foot from Ken's in Alabama. It is a guide foot, and I anxiously awaited it. YES, it fits my Elna 720 and I think it will be fine on my Janome 8050 as well. It does not matter if your machine is high or low shank when a foot is a snap on! Oddly, the foot included a different needle assembly screw than my Elna has, and the directions for the foot say to change this out to this new one. Well, I tried the foot and it works without doing that switch, so I called Ken's and talked to a tech. He says no need to change out the screw unless your machine has one that interferes with the foot itself in use - so be sure and TEST the thing out slowly to see if the needle bar screw hits the foot in use. Mine does not.

Haha, use left-over and old fabrics; then reward yourself with a new foot. Works for me.
Well, Mama had a lot of that fabric and a matching fabric in very dark blue background as well - they were quilt backings and I think each was about 4-5 yards when I brought them home. I have been using them over the years. Cottons keep very very well. ;)
