The item you found in your machine drawer looks like a hook for making hooked rugs. I used to hook ruge years ago and had what was called an automatic hook. This looks like a regular hook. The wire piece can be moved up or down on the long needle for making differemt length stitches.

Happy 4th of July to everyone. Enjoy the day and love the patriotism that everyone shows with their flying of the flag and home decorations.

I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Here is my flag quilt. I made it in 2007. I have searched all morning to find a picture of our bridleless drill team carrying the flag in a 4th of July parade here a couple years ago, but I CAN'T find the picture! I really wanted to post a picture of our parade on this 4th of July day!
Happy 4th everyone!
