Thanks for posting this. I can't find the directions for mine.

My Kenmore (158-1703) uses them. I don't know about any others. It's from about 1974.

I'm using it on a 158-17570. But I suspect it would work on any machine with the bobbin cover in the front that has a button holler drive under it.

The monogrammers should work on most of the 158 Kenmores that have a flat bed, won't work on the open arm machines.

Hi All, would this work on any other machine. I don't have a Kenmore but I do have the monogrammer along with a few other accessories. Carolyn

Carolyn,

Certain Kenmores only. The mounting and drive are unique to them.

This is a very unique devise as it runs off a lever that is below the throat plate of the machine.

Almost all others operate by using a lever that goes up and down with the needlebar.

BTW - the long cam strips for this style monogrammer are TOO WIDE to fit with the other style Deluxe monogrammer, that Greist made with Greist, Singer and Kenmore names on them. I've got a short shank Greist and a slant shank Singer.

Just the thread I was looking for. My husband purchased a Kenmore vintage mmododel 158.904 for me for Christmas. I am trying to find which monogrammer will fit the machine, Kenmore made several models of monogrammers and there are quite a few listed on ebay, but none state which model of monogrammer they are or which machine they might go with. I've identified two monogrammers, Kenmore part #43560 and #41704 that are candidates for my machine. I'm thinking that the differences are one is for the 148 Kenmore series (made by Soryu) and the other is for the 158 series (made by Jaguar Maruzen) both lines manufactured and sold by Sears from about 1957 through the late 70s. My model 90 was producted by Jaguar Maruzen. The monogrammer manuals list the part number but not which machines they fit. ,Does anyone own a Kenmore 148 or 158 and have a monogrammer? If s
I would appreciate it if you could tell my which monogrammer you have so I can make a buying decision on ebay.

Thanks, Genny from Indianapolis

brandeesmom, I signed up for this site just so I could thank you for posting the monogrammer information. I have that exact one as well but no instructions and couldn't figure out how to use it. It's now working and the monograms look great! I'm off to monogram some pillow cases now. Thanks!

See you have the complete opposite of my problem. LOL I have a monogrammer and cams but no machine. Eventually i'll stumble upon one.
