Vintage Singer Attachments & Accessories Identification Chart

Every presser foot, hemmer, binder and accessory for the Singer 221 & 222 — what it is, its part number, and where to find it.

A display of vintage Singer attachments and accessories

This chart has Singer Attachments that are broken down into subcategories: Common Basics, Individual Spares, Mechanical Attachments, Fashion Aids, and Scarce Accoutrements. Some may fall into two or more categories depending on what they are.

The Common Basics were those attachments most commonly included with each Singer Featherweight or Singer Sewing Machine at time of purchase. This varied slightly over the years as new products were developed and improvements on the old ones were made.

Part numbers given are for low shank attachments because low shank attachments are the only kind that will fit on a Singer Featherweight 221 or 222. The remaining items are Singer Accessories which can be useful and quite enjoyable to add to your collection.

The attachments and accessories included in this chart will fit, function and work properly on the Singer Featherweight.
