Many of you know that my honey buys and refurbishes and sells Singer Featherweight sewing machines. So we see lots and lots of stuff come in … yet what we sell is very organized and made to be just so… so in our adventures of featherweight buying we have started a collection of sorts of old antique sewing machines and parts for them…
Here is a tool that we found a couple months ago in a featherweight we bought…
We were unsure of it’s true purpose… so my honey researched it and found it was actually a needle threader and seam ripper… yet we still were perplexed on how to use it to thread sewing machines….
Then yesterday when a new Featherweight came in we found instructions, revision of instructions and the original package for the tool…
So we now know this tool is a needle threader & seam ripper!! And it was made in the mid 1930’s 🙂
VERY COOL!
So just thought I would share this fun little praise report with you.
I am also stitching away but will show progress on Friday at the LINKY PARTY!!!!
Have a blessed week!

Yes, very cool. It's amazing how things like this work out. I have never seen one. I hope to find a FW table one day in my travels.

Looks easy once you find out how, doesn't it. LOL I had my MIL's Feather Weight and sold it in a garage sale before I got into sewing. Still kicking myself.

My Husqvarna Viking sewing machine has a built in needle threader that I still haven't figured out how to use. I should check to see if there is a you tube video on it LOL I love going to flea markets and antique stores to find unusual things and guess what they are.

So neat! I need to get out the instructions and see what some of the extra's are with my Grammy's 301. I have the instruction booklet and all the parts…. just need to start exercising her more!
