Anyone know where I can buy parts for this machine? Need a new Presser Foot Holder, but can't find anything on the web. I bought the machine new, and have used it regularly for all these years, but now it is a problem.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

Gina, are you referring to a low shank foot holder? I believe this part is pretty universal. Have you tried your local sewing machine repair. I believe parts for your machine should be available.

Gina: I have a Wards UHT J1273, (which is should be similar to yours) and as Klynne says, it takes a standard low shank presser foot (http://sewingmachine221sale.bizland.com/store/page62.html) . You should try going to somewhere like a JoAnn Fabric Superstore and pick up a complete presser foot holder assembly (the part that attaches to the machine with the thumbscrew) If you get a snap-on presser foot holder then you can use the more modern snap-on feet. Good Luck !
