Hello everyone! Looks like I will be in the shop for a little while today since it is raining here. I am going to work on machines today but thankfully I will have my other laptop in the studio with me!
There has been some really nice machines brought in here in the last day or two. The Viking is to die for!!
As far as Featherweights go I have yet to give over $100 for one. In fact the last 3 that I bought to keep in my collection (never happened) was bought for less than $30 each. So the cheap deals are out there, but I would opt for a 301 while they are affordable. I have been watching the prices of those jump and they look to be passing the FW soon.
But the 301 is the full size sister to the Featherweight. It has the flip down bed the same bobbin as the FW but it is a full size with drop feed dogs and is built a lot better for quilting in my opinion. And it has a built in carrying handle and only weighs just a bit more that the Featherweight.
