New, reproduction Graduated Needle / Throat Stitch Plate for the Singer Featherweight 221. Is your throat plate plain with no marking lines? Are you using tape or other make-shift guide? Would you like to have something accurately marked? We recommend the reproduction graduated needle / throat plate. It is marked 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", and 3/4" for quick seam allowance reference. Using your same throat plate screws, it will screw down snugly and fit perfectly on most* Featherweights.
{Reproduction plates are NOT marked on the bottom, whereas originals are marked with SIMANCO and a part number.}
*Do keep in mind that reproduction plates have a tendency to sit 1/32" higher than the bed on some machines. As you can see this is a nominal difference, but something to be aware of. That being said, occasionally on some of the older Featherweights, there was a very slight difference in the factory mold when machines were made that causes the bed extension to not have enough clearance when raised (once the reproduction graduated throat plate is screwed down). The only way to test for this is with trial and error and in-person.
