This was the only table that was made for the Featherweight. With all the popularity that drove the price of Featherweights into orbit, you can expect these tables to be sky high, as well. If you have one in your attic, hang on to it!

I have one. It is a great little table. The one in the picture is in pretty rough shape for the price. If you are interested in one, look around. I bought mine at a quilt show from a vendor. It shows some wear, but is in good shape.

Currently I have it set up in my den rather then my sewing room where I am working on dresden plates. It is easy to set up and take down and occupies a small area where I can sit and sew as my husband watches television and we can visit at the same time. Love my table and my featherweights. I didn't realize they sold for that much I purchased the featherweight and casket case vintage singer sewing machine for $200.00, then a few months later my friend showed up and said oops I forgot this table was with one of those machines, he dropped it off and said he wanted no money for it. Use your table it is really a great working piece.

My Daddy made this table for me a couple of years ago.
I absolutely LOVE it.
Another bonus is that my Kenmore also fits the same inset!
I've been so busy using it that I've not gotten around to painting/sealing it.. oops!

Homemade Featherweight Table - The cutout can be replaced to make it a flat table.

When the Featherweights first came out this was the table sold by Singer to go along with them. This is a reproduction, but I remember my grandmother's --- I thought it was odd then but she said it worked great.

This is my first post. I am wondering if someone could post the measurement of the area from the edge of the table where you sit to the machine. It has always looked like a lot of reaching to the machine. Thanks
