This is our second featherweight, my wife paid 300 for the first one at the Brimfield, MA flea market. This one also had a blind hem and buttonhole attachments, each in original boxes with instructions. we also have a singer red eye treadle, a white rotary treadle, a 1930s era kenmore, and several modern machines. My wife pieces, and I quilt.

Well, I've just looked up what a FW box looks like. So now I know if I see one, I'll recognize it! How lucky for you!
