Yes, my Featherweight is so quiet that I tell people that I could sew on it during church service and nobody could hear me. LOL!!!

I was told the quieter the machine the more precision went into the fitting of the parts. The older FWs seem to be quieter then the later ones.

Thanks for the Nova Montgomery site. I need a refresher course on taking my machine apart and cleaning and lubricating the old girl.

My FW was born 2 days before me and I know how achy I am, so she must be pretty achy too and needing more TLC than I tend to give her.
