Congratulations! Welcome to the beautiful world of FW's :-P You'll enjoy sewing with her.

Congrats on the new Family member!

Well done! Congratulations on a great find!

Congrats on your new baby. I hope you love sewing with her as much as I do mine. And yes, they are the perfect size to teach the grandchildren how to sew/quilt.

Congrats! Baby is a beauty!!

i knew you would fall in love, enjoy her

Awesome, enjoy her. I love mine.

How wonderful! She is beautiful, and with all those extra goodies! Enjoy her is good health! She will last a long time with proper love and care.

I, too, just bought a Featherweight. It is a 1951 Centennial version and also my birth year. How perfect is that? My wonderful husband let me get it for my birthday at the Cincinnati International Quilt Festival last weekend. My 9-year-old granddaughter has already sewed on more than I have.

One thing I learned about the serial numbers listed is that the date by the serial number is the date those serial numbers were issued to the manufacturing plant even though it may not have been manufactured that date. So, it can be a centennial model and have a 1949 date on the serial number even though the centennial was actually 1951. You will love her. Congrats
