Toy machine needs needle
I have had a 1940's toy Stitch Mistress sewing machine, as with other toy they are not given very good care. I have recently had it in my sewing room as a decoration and my Granddaughter (8yr ) wants it..."when I go".
I have decided to give it to her now but I need a needle for it. It makes a chain stitch so it does not need a bobbin. Took it to a local repair man and he said that the regular needles are too long. Not knowing much about needles was wondering if I could get some information as to where I could find a shorter needle?
