cocoa Report post Posted August 17, 2020 Hi folks, I've recently got old fur sewing machine of model Allbook&Hashfield Success by occasion. It's needle is in place, very thin and the needle hole is small. Perhaps it was set up to sew gloves before. Can anyone advice what tread I need to buy for it? And what needles to buy?

Handstitched Report post Posted August 18, 2020 @cocoa G'Day, I found this: Theres some good advice by ' Wizcrafts' . Hope it helps I was offered one of those years ago for $650-Au in my 'early days' . But as its mainly for fur, or so I thought, I didn't buy it, apart from the price, a bit steep. But if I see one again, at a good price, I might reconsider. HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
