    Default electric singer sewing machine accompanying items. I really lucked out this time.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]615277[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615278[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615279[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615277[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615281[/ATTACH]

    Here are all the antique sewing machine items that came with the Electric Singer sewing machine which was gifted to me. I was so excited to receive this gift, I made her a table runner in exchange
    and she was happy with that, as she is not a sewing person. This was the third one I have made of these runners.

    Yes, indeed, you lucked out with all the goodies along with a nice machine.

    To the best of my ability here is what I am pretty sure on most of them.
    1 low shank quilting foot & bar
    2 top clamp tucker
    3 top clamp edgestitcher
    4 low shank edgestitcher
    5 low shank tucker
    6 low shank shirring foot & thumb screw
    7 shirring plate can't tell which machine
    8 low shank adjustable hemmer
    9 maybe part of tucker
    10 low shank I think part of adjustable zipper foot
    10 yellow (votive candle) maybe for spool pin holder to hold cone thread????
    11 low shank Straight stitch foot
    12 low shank multi-slot binder with guide
    13 top clamp hemmer maybe 3/8"
    14 top clamp binder
    15 top clamp hemmer maybe 1/4"
    16 low shank Narrow hemmer
    17 top clamp hemmer maybe 1/2"
    18 top clamp hemmer maybe 7/8"
    120 ?? ruffler
    130 low shank adjustable hemmer
    Probably, the low shank feet will have a number on them and will work with the 128. I don't know which machine the top clamp feet go to as there were several that used top clamp feet, but some of the dimensions are different.
    .
    I can't tell for sure from the picture whether the ruffler is for a top clamp or not.

    Have fun playing with it all.

    Lucky you! I see a Singer zig zagger and some additional cams. I was happy to find one with the basic cams at a thrift store for $5.50. The hat pins are an interesting find.

    Nice find! I have attachments that have come with just about every machine I ever owned. Seems like they stayed with me and not with the machines.

    Wow! That's an impressive array of attachments and what my grandmother would have called "doo-dads" Is "doo-dad" even a word?

    If those are Spindle Bobbins in one of the plastic bottles you really DID luck out.

    The manual also came with the machine, and it is in new condition, and those are spindle bobbins, I just counted the spindle bobbins and there are 22 - 10 in one bottle and 12 in the other. I already used the ruffler on this machine to make a bedskirt, and it really worked out well. The directions were in the manual how to use it. Thanks to Our work bench for identifying all those attachments, now I will have to look for directions on how to use them, I truly appreciate your knowledge on these. I would imagine I would find those directions on the internet - The machine runs like a charm, I am so happy - always wanted one of these. Thanks for all the nice comments.

    That is nice! All those additional cams for the Singer Automatic Zigzagger, I'm quite jealous
