Question

sewing tool
Hi, I have looked and looked to try and figure what this tool is.  It was in a box full of old sewing items so I am assuming this is what it is for.  Can you help identify it.  Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer
Hello Karie.  Your item does not look like any sewing tool I am familiar with.  It could be an industrial sewing part or tool, but that's just a guess.  I see there is some embossed lettering on the item, but I couldn't make it all out.  Have you tried searching on the name/phrase that is on the tool?  Sorry I'm not more help.  Barbara
