Purpose of this second thread guide?
Hi Group,
Firstly, thanks again for those who helped advise me on my timing issue. I am so thrilled to have it done!
Now, on my Great Blue White 15 clone (avatar photo) there are two thread guides on the beautiful chrome plate. You can see how it thread, using the back (or left, if you are looking right at the plate) one. The right/front one, I have not been able to figure out what it is there for. It actually does not seem to be for bobbin winding, though someone once suggested that. (The bobbin winding occurs on the bottom right of the machine, where there is a spool pin.
I would so love to know what this extra thread guide is for. There is only one spool pin on the machine, but could somehow be for sewing with two top threads? I don't think so, because the thread would have no comfy way of getting to the back tension area without getting caught by the thread take up lever.
I am very puzzled. Ideas?
