They are wonderful,smooth,adorable,perfect stitches and super duper adorable. OOPS I already told you they were adorable. I have several and they are all different. One day I am hoping for a 1957. Have you ever sewn on one?
My first featherweight was a 1934 and I was hooked. It really is so hard to explain but they are such a loved machine. Check on Craig's list for them. I usually get mine from ebay and they kill us on shipping here. Hope you experience one and then you'll know why somany people love them! Then post pix of yours so we can all ooohhhh and aaahhhh :shock: :thumbup:
