    I would like you to meet Miss Bell, My featherweight. Mom gave her to me about a year ago.I do the happy dance everytime I use(and thats quite alot).She came from a sweet lil old black lady we all called Miss Bell. Before Miss Bell Passed on to meet our Lord she tried to give my Miss Bell to Mom.I think MIss Bell finally agreed to take $5.00 for her. She is a sweet lil machine her Black box is in need of repair but she purrs like a kitten. She came with attachments Mom ordered a reproduction manual. Im so lucky to have her. Thanks Mom :)

    Congratulations!! I have been searching for just the right featherweight for me. Actually, I found the one I wanted, but kept looking hoping to find one at a lower price. After looking a 4 others and driving all over the place, I decided to buy the higher priced one! Some lessons are hard to learn!!

    Do you know that I just saw a Featherweight listed for $750.00. Can you believe it? Your mom (and you) did get a DEAL.
