Can someone give me a source for the needles for the Wilcox Gibbs sewing machine pictured? I have one with a needle with an eye so tiny I cannot get a thread through it. Does anyone have any help on that? A needle threader won't go through it either. I would love any information on this machine that anyone can give me. Mine is not a treadle but has a foot control the shape of a shoe bottom on it.
