Hi! I purchased a FW 221-1, 1947, from the original owner. It is beautiful and works so well! I was amazed that you can purchase a walking foot for this machine. It has many feet that I thought were new on my two Berninas? I had an electronic Viking for over 25 years, which I have since given to my youngest daughter. When I inquired of Viking if a walking foot could be purchased for that model, I was advised, "no" . . . a walking foot was only available on newer models. I hope some of my granddaughters develop an interest in sewing. I would love to pass this little gem along. P.S. I got into the FW area on this board, but I'm not understanding how to post to it.
