Neat! I was thinking it might go to either a Featherweight also or perhaps a Rocketeer! Are you going to tell us today or make us sweat it out?

I would have guessed it was for the Elna Supermatics. Looks like not though. Rodney

Oh, I think it's a feed dog cover for a Feather Weight.

LOL! Joe, If you do have one hanging around, don't lose it. Especially when they come with the embroidery foot, they go into 3 figures on well known auction sites. That means if you want one and can't find the one you have... it's pricey.Originally Posted by J Miller
When I looked at your pic the old ..... "I've seen one of those things - somewhere - some time - some place" light bulb lit up. But I have no idea. My wife said the same thing. Now we'll probably end up digging through all our stuff to see if we might have one.Oh, I think it's a feed dog cover for a Feather Weight.

You're correct KLO. It's for a featherweight and probably a 301 since they use the same throat plate.Originally Posted by KLO

It's a really tight fit on the featherweight and doesn't fit any of the other plates I've tried so far.

They're close but there are definite differences. Here's the Elna one I have beside the Singer one:Originally Posted by costumegirl

Deb - that's what I was hoping to get people to do. 
I bet there are tons of fun attachments that end up in homes where they never get used.
melmerr1 - yes, you're right. I should have specified that. Though I do find the 401s for instance prefer the feed dog cover plate with the monogrammers vs just raising the throat plate, so there may be a use for it on the 301.

untill you find one here is the work-around: the plastic blank packaged in the package of writable CD's held in place with double sided tape. Yes, my 301A is in neutral and the feed dogs dropped, but I still like to have the slots covered, it is just smoother.
