I was getting tired of lugging my big machine around (even if it was just from one room to another lol) so I decided to give this gorgeous little darling a try. That's my friend Valerie (No Blog) in the background doing some serious stitching.
It's a Featherweight 221k and I bought her off eBay ages ago for a pretty good price and I've hardly used her. I got a 1/4" foot for her, also from eBay, a couple of months ago so she was ready to go. Wow!!! She's a dream to use!!! I know I'll be getting this little dynamo out of hiding much, much, more in the future. Not only is she beautiful, but she sews quietly and soooo neatly, even at 58 years old!! I still have the original receipt, and on 1st September 1951 she was bought for the princely sum of 43 pounds 8 shillings and 9pence!!
Hey, do you think the warranty is still good he he he??? Here's the box she came in with some more feet and a spare bobbin .....
and this came with her too ..... it's a buttonhole maker, complete with instructions, but there's no zig-zag on this model so I think it might be for another machine (???). LOL it's HUGE ... It's as big as my hand!!!
I'm going to have to come up with a name for this lady ......... any ideas?????Take care......
P.S I'd love to hear from any other Featherweight 221k owners :o)
