Granny, you can get bobbins for Louise from Sew Classic. She uses the low or short shank feet, which are easy to come across. I have bought rolling yarn totes from Michaels to house my featherweights when I want to take them with me. You can also use rolling scrap booking totes as they are also smaller than the regular sewing machine totes. How old is Louise? She will be a wonderful companion for sewing.
