I have a 1954 White Featherweight, and I like the way it sews when piecing quilts. I've had reason to be cruising through e-bay in the past few days, and I have to tell you, I think the FW's are priced way beyond what they're worth. $750.00 is way too much, and I saw a couple that were $1,100.00. Not to mention the 222 which was priced at $1,200.00 +. That is way beyond my pocketbook! Besides, I don't need more than one! Despite my addiction to sewing machines, I still have a tendency to be "cheap"! LOL
