SEW Excited!!!

Like I really need another sewing machine, but... I found a 1936 FW in good condition with feet, book, case etc. for $100. I couldn't believe it, nor could I afford to let it go. I guess Fiona now has a new twin sister. Thinking about calling her Phoebe.

Congrats! I have a 1936 FW also, but I paid double that and thought I got a good deal. I like your name choice!

I have 2 vintage machines, and am planning to stop at 2, but if I'd seen a featherweight I good condition ith feet and case... I'd have grabbed it too! Congrats!
