I think someone says go to the "featherweight Singer" sites, right? |
What a steal! It is beautiful.

Ok, help me here. I understand the collector thing, because my whole house is an omage (sp) to collections of one thing or another, but I have an old singer sewing machine that my grandmother used back in the 40's and there's no way I would want to use that smelly old thing. I've seen the Featherweights at my LQS for sale, the boxes smell moldy (they've come out with new ones). Everytime this one quilter lady comes to a class and sits behind me and whips out the Featherweight, I start sneezing and my nose blocks up. What's up with that?
My question is why would you use that one when you can use your pretty new ones, or are the featherweights just for decoration? |
KATHOME....thanks for your info.
Thank u all for the comments/info.... the lite green ones really cute. Sometimes..when i have the machine on one place it has that celery green hues to it and other time/places it is the white color! |
