Thanks! Haha! My brother showed a full 60 seconds interest in the mechanics of it and then disappeared, I don't think I have to be too worried about him making off with it.

Very pretty tan FW, she's the twin to mine.

I'm in the middle showing off my tan featherweight.

There was an ad for a white one on another website that I saw but it was further away from me. Also, something about the ad just seemed off, and before I could get in contact with them the ad expired. Maybe someday I'll come across another one, they're really cute!

She's a beauty. You did good! YOu will get many good years out of her.
Will you come clean my car next? Country roads are heck on cars. I wash about once or twice a year and let the rain do the rest.

Oh cool! Is yours a 221K too? After I got mine I started looking around at others. The only other tan ones I've seen online are 221Js. I know the K means it was made in Scotland. I don't know what the J means or what the difference would be between them. Yours is pretty too.

What a beauty! Take good care of her the dog and keep that car more or less clean!

Thanks! I sure hope so. Mine normally doesn't even get cleaned that often. I think the last time it was actually washed was well over a year ago and that was only because my brother got disgusted looking at the pollen on it and took the power washer to the car.

Thanks. Nope, it's just a straight stitch machine. I think there's an attachment you can get to make a zig zag. But I think I read/heard somewhere that some people have had a problem with them messing up their machines.
