Thank you everyone for the advice and links! Plugged her in; she runs like a clear river. Bulb as bright as the day she was born.

I don't think my DH knows what a FW is or that I have one. Yours is a beauty and looks to be in mint condition. Great gift and I hope you enjoy her.

Sometimes you can get the entire box of attachments on ebay and for good prices too!

Runs like a clear river....love it! I think I've purchased extra bobbins at J's. On the label it would say for FW machines. Easy to locate bobbins and needles. But remember to thread from the inside out.

That is one beautiful FW--I have several, and it is prettier than any of them except for one that was given to me in the 80s by someone who didn't realize what that gift was. Nothing beats a FW for piecing a quilt.....so handy, so small, and so quiet......Love, love, love all of mine.
