NO --- you will not find the word featherweight on the machine. Look for 221-1 ( or at least 221 ) under the badge. Another featherweight is the 222 ( numbers in the same location ) The 222 is a free arm. If You find something that you suspect is a featherweight and it does NOT have a fold up extension table attached to the machine, (221) it ain't a featherweight.
