July 6, 2019 Colorado Get-together Part 2
James brought two machines, one of them an Elna and the other a Montgomery Wards clone of it. There were a variety of interesting attachments and accessories that came with the Elna, including a gear reduction unit that slipped onto the Elna. Pictures of the machines, the accessories and the gear reduction unit are shown below.

One accessory that was of particular interest was a Hiawatha Magic Basting Guide. Dorothy knew about it and demonstrated how it might be used. It slips over one's finger, allowing easy basting or stitching. Below is a picture of Dorothy showing how it might be used.
