Hi! I also have 2 featherwights and finally named them. One is a 221 and her name is Edna after my grandmother that taught me to sew. The other is the 222k (free arm) I named him Harry after my grandfather....they were always such a fabulous couple (my grandparents) so I think it's very fitting. They say you should name them after a loved one or a silly name to make you smile when you think of sewing with her. Good luck!

Excuse my ignorance.... but just what is a featherweight and how does it differ from the machine that you usually use for your piecing??

Mine is Hector. Am I the only one who chose a male name?

No feather weight, but have named my long arm. "Bella" which I believe is lovely in Italian. I'm the only girl with four brothers. Then we had two sons too! I was going to get my girl one way or another. Happy New Year everyone!

Roberta

Thank goodness there's another with a male name. I just looked at my FW and it screamed Hector to me, don't know why.

I named my featherweight Little Bird. It's been so long ago I don't know why I called it that but it stuck

Thanks... took a quick look while at work!! Why is it that every one wants one. They look like the machines I used to use when I was forced to do Home Economics at school, and that was a lot of years ago now.
