anyone heard of a "bell"?
 
I was at a local flea market today & happened to see a little sewing machine that looked to be in a briefcase! the name on it was BELL & it sure was a strange color blue...the tag said it worked, but it sure looked like a toy to me! I was amazed to see something so small--can anyone tell me anything about these? thanks in advance!

If you do a search using the search feature above you should find several threads on it. I just got mine a few weeks ago. Found out it can only use vintage needles, so I stocked up. http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...e-t239008.html

I have two...bought one on ebay and the post office killed the foot pedal. Got another one a few years later.. No problem. They are sooo cute. Not something I would use often but fun to own for display. I have sewn with them and they are fine but as I said, I bought them for feeding my addiction to weird machines. I also have a featherlite, not featherweight( do have two of them also) FEATHERLITE. Another tiny machine.
