Yes, there were what were called embroidery attachments made for low shank machines. However, they were additional and not included in the basic attachments that came with the machine.

Then there was a foot (like a modern hopping foot) https://singer-featherweight.com/pro...ng-foot-121094 which could probably be used for "thread painting" as seen in https://archive.org/details/singerinstructio00sing although the instructions just use a bare needle, without a presser foot.

Then there was a "guide" called YANDELL monogram embroidery guide that I would consider a couching guide There was another one like it called a Colbert. I found a post that had a little better picture of how it worked.

I think there was another one that was more like a darning spring, but don't remember the name of it.

I also found a Arrasene Embroidery attachment at https://singer-featherweight.com/pro...ntage-original
