I found a 221 featherweight!
I found a 221 featherweight at the giant flea market in Canton, TX. I paid $235 which included the featherweight table. Sews beautifully. Just the motor starts off running slow and speeds up as you sew. Maybe cleaning and oiling will solve this problem. I am very pleased and plan to use her in my motorhome. Hurray for me. I hit the vintage jackpot.

Wonderful! You will love having her. I do piecing when watching videos by putting my FW on a round wooden bar stool. No other sewing machine would ever fit that small space.
|
I'll say you hit the jackpot! Fantastic find- enjoy!
