My Singer 319 also takes these flat Fashion Disc cams mentioned in posts 10, 18, & 19. They measure 1-11/10" wide and have the serial #2763(01-31). Five of the 31 stitches are on-board the machine though accessed via type-writer like keys.

That is wonderful, I have passed up many cams of diff. kinds because didn't know what they fit, this is kind of like matching a saucer to a china cup, not very often to you find the match. I bet it will sew well for you too.

If I can I always pick up cam sets. You never know when you'll find the right machine or be able to help someone else with the right set of cams.
Ugh, tea sets. I had to count, photograph and box up almost 300 miniature tea sets and partial sets from my Aunts house. It took 3 days and ended up 23 or 28 boxes.

My son just got this Fleetwood. No cams with it. Does anyone know what this would take? I've never seen one but he thinks this could work in my treadle. Just no idea what to look for. No luck online so far.

I think you are in luck, there's an old post by quilt addict, looks like she exactly the same model, or close enough at least. I think this is the type of set, but don't buy anything with out double checking, I have only search this up and have no first hand knowledge. I'm sure others will give you additonal info and advice ;)

Thanks, that is the same machine.

As long as the belt groove in the hand wheel is out farther than the bed of the machine it can be treadled.

My Mom has the exact same machine as Sewbeadit (post #58). She still has all the cams and accessories as well. I used it last summer to make a quilt. The quarter inch seam allowance was hard as it is left-homing and the quarter inch mark fell just inside the right feed dog. Growing up, I made a lot of clothes with that machine, but never again will I attempt to make a quilt.

There are 25 + 1 for buttonhole making labeled "0". This is for the Kenmore model 782

Thank you, ddrn. Note it is for a Canadian Kenmore C877-781.
Here are the stitches that I made for my Miracle machine that has cams similar to those in post #54 & #60 and possibly #79.
