They are quite a lot like the FW but are a little bigger, heavier, has a slant needle, built in motor, feed dogs will drop on the 301, BUT same obnoxious bobbin case/shuttle, both have that lift bed, same throat plate.

Well I don't like the FW such a wimpy little machine for me. The FW sews well enough but.. Maybe I really don't want a 301 and I will stick to the older ones in the treadles and HC. I never did like the obnoxious bobbin case.

I found this in my local antique shop. It is from England. Cute and decals are wonderful and it is a HC with all the attchments. I could not pass it up. Does any one know anything about this machine?

Glenn,
Looks a lot like a British Jones. Cool machines. Cathy

I agree Cathy it looks like a Jones to me to

Glenn,
I don't care for FWs either. My wife wanted one so I got her one, but she hasn't used it much. I spend more time taking it off the shelf looking at it and taking pics of it to help others. .................................................. ................................ I really like Gloria. She's sweet. Love that receipt too. That I would carefully put in a arcival quality storage envelope for posterity. Joe |
Gloria is very pretty and love her case.
