Singercraft guide

The 4th in the lot of attachments I got today, this one allows you to sew down loops of yarn, thread, ribbon, etc to make rugs or other pieces fiber of art. It also has a blade to cut through one side of the loops if you choose to, or you can remove the blade to leave the loops. I wonder when I see all of these who had the time to sit there and think up a way to make a sewing machine be able to do these techniques.
I also am amazed as to how many of these functions are internalized in modern machines with any number of stitch functions.
Each day that I continue to collect more I learn more about the history of home sewing machinery. Posted by Picasa
