Yes, the 201 is in a treadle which is located in the living room. I love piecing with my Two Spools too just for the reasons that you describe. I decided to keep my husband company while he was watching tv the other night; so, I did the piecing with the 201. I prefer the foot on the Two Spools for piecing over the 201 foot since the fabrics glide under easier without getting messed. The Singer foot has the shorter one side while the Two Spools foot has both prongs the same length (hope that makes sense). I was thinking of moving my Two Spools into the living room, but I still like the look of the 201 in there more.

I always recommend Charlene Phillips' book The Sewing Machine Attachment Handbook. Nice clear pictures, how-to's that make sense... It lives permanently beside my sewing table now. It never seems to make it back to the bookshelf.

Okay, dumb question. Is there some place that shows me how to use these attachments? I thought that maybe the attachment on the right side of photo 1 was like a darning or FM foot. It sort of looks like the one I have for my Brother. I will try silver polish on the bar, see if it cleans it, since it was mentioned. If not, have plenty of toothpaste, lol. Thanks.
