I bought a side-clamping 66 presser bar but I can't bring myself to alter the machine. If it were my main machine I *might*, but it's a HC and the only thing I can envision needing is the zipper feet. They are hard to find, though.

One of my favorite books on my Kindle is The Sewing Machine Attachment Handbook.

I think I will have time to lay them out and photograph them today. I will keep my eye out for that. :-)

Finally sorted it all out. Sort of.

Hi Group,

So, I laid out the loot box in categories, and photographed it.

I will be perfectly honest, I have no idea what most of it is!!!

I would love to have help and advice putting the correct pieces in the puzzle box. I am guessing MacyBaby has a complete puzzle box close up...?

Also there is a lovely New Williams tin; does anyone have a complete one, who could share a photo, so I know which bits to pic out from the look pile to put in that tin?

Okay, get ready for the photo parade!!!

Green Singer Box with loot.

Are there such things as "proper sets" for these green Singer Boxes? I don't know. This is what was inside this one. If I should re-distribute this loot to make it more "correct", please let me know.[ATTACH=CONFIG]448016[/ATTACH]
