Happy Birthday to me !!!
I am probbaly posting this in the wrong area but I'm just sooooooo excited I have to post it somewhere so please forgive me........Today is my birthday and I went garage saleing (sp?) with my daughter and I found a featherweight at one of them...... well I should say my SIL found it for me....I was looking at some old quilts when he called me to look at a sewing machine he found. When I turned and saw that little black case I told him not to let go !!!!! I am so happy to FINALLY get my fat little fingers on one of those I could bust a gut !!!!. So now where do I go to find out when she was born?

First of all, Happy Birthday to you - hope you got your new little MissSewExtraordinaire for a great price!:thumbup:
If you call Singer during regular business hours (I think the number is 1-800-4SINGER, look it up on their website0, and give them her S/N, they can tell you when she was born. I did that with all my vintage Singers, so now I can celebrate their birthdays - or I would if I didn't have a life :D |
happy Birthday Linda, and congrats on you great find.:thumbup:

Happy Birthday! I hope you've had a blessed day.

http://www.singer-featherweight.com/...es/dating.html Thanks, Jim, for posting this site. I;ve bookmarked it as I have 2 Featherweights and no manuals. The one from a flea market was stated in May 1938!!! My MIL's we will need to check. How fun is it to have this machine and folks here who are so knoweldgeable about them! |
Congrats and happy birthday!
|
happy birthday and congratulations
|
Congrats on your new machine. If you google singer featherweight serial numbers it will tell you when she was born.
|
What a wonderful birthday "present". Hope it continues to be a good one!
|
What a great find! Enjoy her! I love mine.

Happy birthday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't forget to thread the needle opposite of a larger sewing machine. My sister has a feather weight machine, and we could not get it to sew, we took it in to a shop and right off the gentleman said, thread the needle the opposite way.... well we did that and it sewed great. Congradulations

Happy birthday and congratulations!

Thanks for all the birthday wishes and links. I did manage to find that "Bernadette" was born June 10,1955
Soon as I get back home and get some stuff taken care of I'll be looking for a manual (since she came without one)and any tips or hints on how to clean her up.....and just where to get parts. I do have a question about the case though....did all FW's have the tray that could be lifted out ..or not? Mine doesn't (looks like there isn't enough room for one) Feel free to PM me with suggestions...they will be greatly appreciated. Linda |
What a cool way to celebrate your birthday...enjoy!!!
|
Congratulations..... you will love it:) I have two now, one is a centennial and will not part with them .......
|
Both of my boxes are different. One of mine is a 1950 and has the tray that is lifted out. The tray fits over the top of the machine and foot pedal. The tray holds all the attachments and oil etc...
Both boxes have a key also :) You can get a manual from the Singer site....... |
Happy Birthday but please tell me why these seem to be so popular?
|
happy birthday! may you and your fw have many happy returns!!
