Hi all I am new to sewing, I have had this sewing machine for a couple of years passed down from my family. It is a Fleetwood and the plate on the back says it is model #24. I know how to sew, as far as using a machine when it is all set up, but i am completely lost on how to thread this machine! I cannot find anything online about this particular machine so was hoping I could find some answers here so I can get started using it finally.
Thanks in advance, Amy

Might try here. They seem to have manuals for Fleetwoods. Good luck in your hunt.

Welcome Amy..is there a quilt shop near you? If so take the machine in and ask if they can show you how to thread it. You might want to have it cleaned and serviced while you are there. Good luck..
