Go to this page and find your machine on the list...I'm betting that it takes the 20x1, but don't know for sure without knowing what the machine is.

Thanks, Charlee - enclosing a picture (she's not cleaned yet but I never wait - I sew as soon as I can) Her serial is #1330531 and they dated her to June 7 - 1901. I just spent a bit of time looking on the net and can't find what I "think" she requires (20x1) -- where can I locate them (or is there an alternate size that can be used?). I sure appreciate your help ..............
