While at a quilting show, I think Paducah, I bought a sweeper attachment that hooks right on to the edge of your vacuum hose and it has a small nozzle with a brush on it and you can get into small places with it. It is just called Mini attachment for all vacuums. I think if you google it you can find it. It will get into small places.

I do embroidery along with cutwork needles so I have to vacumn mine out. I got attachments for about 10 at julianeedles.com. They attach to my wand on my vacumn. Don't use the canned air, not only can you embed the lint into your machine when the air turns cold you can damage your components.
