Here is where the Featherweight tote and foot control bag are found.

When I made my tote, I sewed shoelace handles between the lining and the outside cover to make handles as I didn't want the handles to show from the outside when I was using the tote as a cover for my machine. The laces just tuck in our of sight. I hope this helps. Someone else on the QB had a link to the tote pattern and I copied it and am helping spread it around.

On another note, when I am sewing with my newer machines, the foot petal keeps moving around on me and I have to hunt with my foot to find it. I found that with my FW, the foot petal stayed put and didn't move on me. Anyone else find this out too?
