Haven't seen any white ones for awhile.
What are the black ones going for in your area?

I am not sure about the policy of this board for selling DSM. Keep looking on eBay and Craig's list. I had a chance to buy one back in the mid 90s and I passed. The things we learn later in life.

Isn't that the truth? I had a 301a that belonged to my mother in my spare bedroom for over 10 years. When I joined here and people were saying how great they were, I got it out and started sewing on it. I've done the last 2 pieciing projects on it. I love to piece on that machine. And to think for 10 years I never even used it and almost gave it away.

Next is on to the 501 . . .

Miya - go back to August 23 Board Digest. I posted, under the Vintage sewing machine section, the White Featherweight I found a couple of weeks ago. I love it so keep looking.

I think half of the fun is the hunt.

I bought one but haven't had a chance to make use of it. Beautiful machine. It works as far as I know and has a super cute, original carrying case-it's the traditional shape but sort of an aqua with cream accents. If you want pix and a price, send me an email to [email protected]. Not sure how much I paid for it but, it think it was about $600-700. I can go back and look.
