Are you anywhere near Austin--there are several small towns near there, and my GS might be able to help you out with your little FW. PM me. I answered one of your posts from today about the FW you just recently found at an estate sale....BTW, welcome to the board. You're "in" with a bunch of wonderful folks.

Ooooops, guess I got you mixed up with someone from Texas who just found a FW in her ventures out into the estate sales, etc. world. I re-read this posting and see that yours is a Kenmore. You're lucky, they are good machines if it is from the 70s. Sorry, but welcome to the QB. You'll love us.

I'm sorry I'm so late in replying. I have the Featherweight up and running. I bring her out quite often to hem up something. I spent an afternoon watching old movies and sewing up my towels and washcloths. I had a blast. What a great little machine it is.
