You will need to buy long bobbins. They are still available. I just got 10 for my 128. MUV really likes them and can instruct you with her videos. Using long bobbins is a little different and you have to get used to it. Changing back and forth could be a challenge for you, if you don't sew much.
Watch MUV's videos and then decide.

Ok Lynn am I blind?....first I thought you forgot to post a pic, then I see nygal responded w/ "It's a beauty. " I don't see anything.
thanks

Lynn - I'm pretty sure it takes standard low shank feet so you may well have some around that will work.

I'm not a collector, pink. I only have one Janome MC9000 and one Featherweight. I used to have some other machines, but got rid of them when I did over my living/sewing room. At that time I didn't think one needed to have extra machines. LOL I just don't have place to store extra ones. It's been educational reading this board about folks who have multiple machines and stuff.

The featherweight feet should work on it.

Sorry, I mean foot pedal. The connection is not the same. Featherweight has a combined electric plug and foot pedal cord, but this has separate connections. There is an electric cord, but the place for the foot pedal connection is a single round hole. It does have three feet: one regular, and two sizes that look like zipper feet. Also has that bullet shaped bobbin that I've never seen before.
