Thanks for all the responses and idea, everyone!
I will, in the next few days, lay them out and photograph them so that I can figure out at least what is what! This will be fun. I giggled at the Christmas Tree Ornament idea. That said, I like the idea of them being put to use, so whatever I don't have use for myself, I will probably end up giving away or trading. Stay tuned for an organized photo in the next few days! :-) p.s. Miriam, you ditched your own avatar parade? Waaaaaaaahhhhhhh! |

Speaking of Jewelry - when my husband was working on his Pfaff 130 he found several of the stitch selector parts for sale as a Steam Punk style pendant necklace. The funny part - they would have been worth much more sold as replacement parts!

Macybaby, apparently the correct term is Diesel Punk. Different era. Who knew.
I could make me a heckuva necklace out of this box!!! LOL! |

What a treasure you have. If you are wanting to get rid of any of it, I would love to have a seam guide if you have one. I'm trying to upload a photo, and I hope it works. If you have one send me a private e-mail and we'll talk.

OOOOoooohhhh!!!!! a treasure trove.
Loving fondle each one (it is allowed). |
Aileen I am sure I must have one or six.
I need a few days, to have time to sort and photograph. My aim is to try to have one complete puzzle box, and a few other things to complement some bare sewing machine which I have, but other than that, I will be more than happy to give and trade things away. I don't really want to -sell- stuff, because I don't want to be a buy-sell person. I just think this is fun. Maybe I'll trade enough to recoup my costs, and then give the rest. Whatever. :-) I have a feeling you will get a seam guide for Christmas - there must be a few in there!) Whether you choose to use it, wear it, or put it on your tree, that'll be up to you. |

I don't know I have a pile like that, too. I was thinking about hanging them on the Christmas tree but it would be such a lot of work. Mine are all for ancient machines - nothing for vintage or new. Mine are the kind that have the little fork to go in the screw down.

Sort into groups and list on ebay, there are people who will need them.
