most of the stuff I knew was sewing machine related - has already been separated out, and this is some of the other stuff -
This is some misc stuff that I"m pretty sure is not sewing machine related - though I realized I had a shuttle for an American #1 in with this stuff (that is going to Steve H now).
Some of you may know what this pin is for.
I had no idea what the leather punch was the first time one showed up in a box of attachments, but they show up pretty often. I've also got several leather needles now too. Yea, I know that thing on the end doesn't go with them, but it also came in a box of attachments.
Some assorted sewing kits and thimbles. I don't collect this stuff and have no desire to start.
And some more odds and ends - more stuff I don't intend to collect, so I'll hang on to it until I find another home for it. I'm pretty sure those things in the front are button hole cutters.
And some crochet hooks and other hooks - hey- another leather needle! I'll have to toss that in with the others.
Here is the one button hole cutter - says "Pat May 18, 1871. I'm thinking maybe this belongs in the Victorian Sweat Shop.
I assume this is how it works.
