Those two are the shirr plate and underbraider. To use, you remove the front slide on a long bobbin machine and put one in place. They are machine specific. I have lots of them made by Griest - they are part of the attachment set.
Here are a few just to give you an idea
And a National long bobbin set

Elnan- if you plates are different widths/lengths - they are for two different machines. IIRC, New Home is the narrowest (and looks almost the same as the National) and Singer/Free (and some Whites made for Sears) take the widest.
I probably have 4-5 Greist style tuckers - they made several modifications over the years. Same with the Ruffler.
Sounds like you have an assortment from different sets - the fun part is figuring them all out!

This isn't near organized enough for putting in a "sticky" group. Once the Shed is done, I'll start organizing and posting details on the sets. That would be useful information - this type is just for fun.

Yeah...I agree! I'd love to see some sort of catalog of attachments with info on who made them, what machine they are for and what they do, along with great pics of the attachments in action. I'll be happy to help with the project. I'm sure others will chime in too.
