Designed especially for vintage sewing machines and modern spools of thread, the Thread Post converts your vertical spool pin into a horizontal thread delivery system. No more twisting and resisting!
Say Goodbye to Thread Tangles: Your Vintage Machine's New Best Friend!
No more twisting and resisting! From spool to needle, your thread will flow evenly with our specially designed Thread Post.
The Thread Post converts your machine’s vertical spool pin into a horizontal thread delivery system, helping you sew smoothly from the first stitch to the last.
Effortless Thread Flow
Witness smoother, more even stitches as your thread glides without resistance.
Heritage Meets Innovation
Honor your machine’s vintage charm while embracing modern spools—with included caps to fit small or large center holes.
Handy Time-Saver
Spend less time fussing and more time honing your craft, whether you’re just beginning or have decades of quilting behind you.
Perfect for Vintage Sewing Machines
Your Thread Post fits perfectly atop the Singer Featherweight 221, 222, plus any vintage Singer with a vertical spool pin, including models 15, 66, 99, 127, 128, 185, 192 Spartan, 201, 237, 327, 328, 401, 500, and 503. (Use the far right pin on your Slant-O-Matic & Rocketeer models.)
Quick Setup:
Simply slide the tapered point onto your machine's spool pin
Place your crosswound thread spool onto the horizontal pin
Select the smallest size cap needed for your thread spool top
Slide the cap onto the horizontal pin to secure your thread
If needed, place the included rubber tip tab on the upper thread guide and thread as usual
Included with Your Thread Post:
• Horizontal Pin Post
• Small Cap
• Large Cap (perfect for thread spools with very large center holes)
• Rubber Tip Tab
Spend less time fussing with thread and more time sewing! Your vintage Singer has faithfully served your creative journey—now give it the thread delivery system it deserves.
(Thread spool not included)
Be sure to watch our helpful video tutorial under the video tab for a complete demonstration!
Q: Is the little tab supposed to go all the way down on the upper thread guide?
A: Tabs are included "just in case you need them". If you experience thread jumping out of the upper guide, then place a little tab on the guide to keep thread secure. Some guides are positioned really close to the machine, others bent in or wide open. Because of this, the tab may or may not fit all the way down on the guide, but as long as it keeps the thread from jumping out, then it is working as intended.
Q: My thread post spins loosely on the spool pin causing the spool of thread to flip back and forth, what can I do?
A: Review the photos and video instructions to follow along, making sure the post is placed with pointed side down (like a fence post) on the spool pin. The Thread Post will remain snug on the spool pin if the point of the post is down rather than up.
Q: My thread twists and sometimes breaks after sewing a little bit, is there a fix?
A: Make sure you are following the directions to use the smallestcap needed to accommodate your spool size. Using too large of a cap can cause the thread to get caught and break. Also, make sure the bottom ring on the spool of Aurifil thread is removed. This bottom ring is designed to keep the thread from unraveling when stored, but it can impede the flow of thread during use. Removing the ring will help clear the thread's unwinding path. Additionally, sometimes just flipping the thread spool on the Thread Post to unwind on the opposite end can allow for smoother flow of thread as well.

Great piece to adapt the machine to modern day thread spools.

thread post
I am very happy with the service I received...the thread post came in just a couple days after I had ordered it. I have not used it as yet but I have a friend who has one and is very happy with it.

It’s the Simple things that can make such a difference
I love Aurifil thread It’s been a bit of a challenge to use with my featherweight because cross wound thread feeds better horizontally . I made the decision to try the thread post. IT is wonderful and has improved the sewing experience.

Sadly Lacking
I thought this was a great idea but it is not. Not the quality I’m used to from the Featherweight Shop. I wouldn’t buy it again.
