Rose Marie, I'm so jealous of your Viking Sapphire! I want one so bad, but yet I still love my Lily. Maybe if I sell a few of my Featherweights I can affort one!

The best feature is the pop up foot in needle down mode. It pops up just a little when you stop sewing. Perfect for aplique and piecing. No lever to lift or lower feet, this is automatic when you start to sew.
The only flaw is the low area to change feet, needles, it is cramped for your hand.
