I got this pretty today for under $200!! It has the original case that isn't in bad shape at all and all the other accessories are there too, except for the manual, but I ordered Dave McCallum's book so that should be ok too. It doesn't have a bobbin case but I have an original one from a 301 that got run over by a car and it should work..so excited I can't believe I finally have a featherweight and she looks so good even before her trip to the spa. Can't wipe the stupid grin off my face...lol |
Woohoo! I'm so happy for you. If this is your first FW, you're gonna love it! I love both of mine
|
She’s a beauty!
|
I've never used one but heard such great things I couldn't pass it up...I just can't wait to get my hands on her...working on names now..lol
|
You are about to fall in love. I have 2 and I adore them.
|
You are about to be hooked in the heart by this little beauty. I'm fortunate to have inherited both my mom's and my mil's plus gifted a third by a dear friend.

How lovely.
I was given a featherweight in 1962 for passing the 11+ exam. It was replaced by other machines as time went by and having retired I have now treated myself to another. I just love it and the memories it brings. |
There has to be a story aobut running over a 301 in a car. That had to be nosiy.

I know being from Wisconsin that it is highly likely that alcohol would be involved but not this time...I came back from a class with a friend, I set the machine down on the ground and grabbed the rest of my stuff and she must have thought I had everything... I heard the trunk slam and before I could back outside she ran over my 301... It was really noisy and she felt really bad, it also flattened her tire... There was no saving the machine, but I did grab the parts that I could and saved them.... it worked out since the featherweight went cheaper because of it and I had the part I needed and I learned to always take my machine in the house first...:o

I love mine. It was my moms and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
