Question 1

Does this work on the Singer Featherweight 221 and 222 models?

Accepted Answer

The SINGER Even Feed Foot is compatible for use with most low shank sewing machine models.  The machine you are inquiring about is a low shank model, so this foot should work.

Question 2

Can someone tell me what low shank means?

Accepted Answer

When I read low shank in the description, I didn't know what it meant either. I went to google. Below is one answer. I have an inexpensive Singer machine about 6 years old and the foot fit perfectly. Good luck Screw In or Snap OnThere are two ways to attach the foot to the machine. Most newer machines use feet that snap on to the shank, and if this is the case with your machine, you do not need to worry about the shank size. However, if you own an older machine, you will need to measure the distance between the bottom of the presser foot and the screw.Low ShankThe measurement for a low shank machine is 3/4 inch. Most sewing machines are low shank, especially those created for home use. Since they are created with consumers and hobbyists in mind, low shank machines have the greatest variety of available presser feet.High ShankThe measurement for a high shank machine is between 1 and 1 1/4 inches. High shanks appear mostly on industrial machines, though they also appear on a few home models such as Kenmore, Necchi and other quilter machines.

Question 3

will this walking foot work on heavy duty Singer machines?

Accepted Answer

if, by heavy duty you are referring to a singer 15-90 or singer 15-91 the answer is yes. I made my sons and grandson fleece jackets and the walking foot is great when sewing fleece material.

Question 4

Will this foot work on a Viking Lily 550

Accepted Answer

Husqvarna Viking is the parent company for Singer.  Many of the feet are compatible.  Ask your dealer and if they offer you a generic walking foot for about $32, saying it will fit your machine, then yes, this one will likely fit as it is the same thing that they are pulling out of a drawer and selling for a higher price ($32 plus local taxes that is).
