Just had a look to see what the difference is in the 221 & 222K, here's the link I watched. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP9ZCZeKQ_4

Merry Christmas!!! How exciting, I love feeling like a kid again at Christmas time and I know you are counting down the days.:thumbup:

Thanks, everyone - it's been two days, and I'm still doing the happy dance. I think I got really lucky with this one. I have a little Post-it note by my desk that says:
- 99 - hand crank - 201 - treadle? - 15-91 - electric, cabinet #40? - fancy decals (Red Eye 66? Lotus? 127 Phoenix? 115 Gingerbread?) - FW 222 (if I win the lottery) Now I can cross off the last one on that list! I didn't even have to win a lottery to afford it, and I feel like I won by getting the machine. I've been checking ads in every city where I have family or friends for almost a year; I've seen a couple 221's for around $100, but was never quick enough to get one, so I'm super, super happy about this one. Cecilia: Sadly, there were no asbestos tiles in the box. Stitching so fast I would burn the house down has always been a possibility for me, so that would have been a perfect solution. :thumbup: profannie: I looked up the tile manufacturer, and they were from California, not Quebec. There were exports in the 50's, though. I find the issues surrounding asbestos really interesting, so I wouldn't have minded having a Quebec asbestos floor tile sample! I love the things that come with old machines; your first aid kit sounds great. |
Congrats! You may have to be a grinch come Christmas to get that away from your Mom!

Congrats Jennifer...You are going to love sewing with your Lucille!! I have a "Bea-Bea, a Pee-Wee, and a Cathy" and use all three!!! They were all gifts from my mom, my mil and a dear friend. I don't know what I'd do without my FW's!!!

Well. Merry Christmas to you - you'll love it!!!
