I know how you feel. My dear old friend gave me her 221 featherweight. It just sews beautifully. She (Natalie) goes wherever I go to quilt. Enjoy your teaching. My great aunt taught me to sew on her treadle in the early 50's. If I had only known how special that machine was I would have kept it- but then I went away to college and never really returned to that home again. Don't know what my parents did with it. Makes me sick. But I really enjoy Natalie. Have fun
