Over the weekend my distraction project to help keep me pacing myself on the cotton knitting was sewing. The project I’m working on required a few buttonholes. I have avoided buttonholes like the plague. I was scared of them. I don’t have a fancy machine. In fact, my sewing machine is a pretty bottom of the line Singer that I bought on a whim from a Wal-Mart in 1997 or 1998. But it did come with the appropriate foot and it has the 4-step settings to form the buttonhole. It was so much easier than I have built it up to be in my head!
When I dug out the accessory packet for the sewing machine I discovered that more or less the only parts I knew what they were for was the buttonhole foot and the brush for removing lint! In the moves I’ve made since I got the machine the instruction manual has disappeared. Above is the foot that confuses me the most. At least it looks like a foot for the machine. That said, it doesn’t have an accessible pin for snapping on the machine like the other feet. Can anyone enlighten me on the purpose of this piece and how I attach it to my machine?
Perhaps it is connected to the machine with this piece that I also cannot identify or figure out?
This one I can put on my machine. I’m just unsure of it’s purpose. The stitch guide is to the right so I’m guessing you have to position the needle to the right when using it. Is it a zipper foot? Or is that skinny one the zipper foot? Perhaps I need to look into replacing my sewing machine’s manual, huh?
