    Default Help me with these feet......

    So I am very excited to have come to own an older sewing machine and it came with different feet attachments. Some of them had serial numbers on them that I managed to look up and find out how to use them... the ones i am showing you have NO serial numbers on them. If you know what they are called or what they are used for then please let me know... or even if you have any sort of guess. I can't wait to use it and make my baby girl some pretty dresses!

    I am thinking this one is a zig zag foot.... but it also has a funky attachment that goes on it...



    this is the funky step attachment that can either be attached or detached.




    Thank you for your help.

    Have you tried googling the make and model of the machine, and the term "attachments"? I think that'd be your best bet in finding out what most of them are. I've used older machines, and one that looks much like yours, but I'm not familiar with all those attachments. If that doesn't work for you, you could try some sewing or quilting forums as lots of quilters seem to like to collect machines as much as fabric. LOL

    Ok so after a few practice pieces i managed to actually make a few things. Let me tell you... using this old machine is a whole different ball game then the newer ones that I have been use to that acutaly back stitch and trying to figure out the tension on it took me a good 3 hours. Well here are my first two projects.

    Here is a cloak I made...




    and a dress....

    I did end up making a black crinoline to go under the dress and a sash for around the waist.

    And no I am not advertising or anything like that. Just showing off what I did!
