    Default Here's a picture of my Featherweight 221- Ethel. :)

    Trying to see if this will post. So, do you think she's worth $20??? I sure do!

    I'm picking up another one tomorrow, but not nearly for that good of a price. Ethel is a bute for sure, and her name sake would be proud.

    I think the flat side of the needle goes to the left, towards the fold up bed. The needle is then threaded from right to left.
