This is a great site. I just added this to my favorites since I now own 5 featherweights and I am always on the lookout for more!

I grew up learning to sew on a Necchi Supernova. Since I know how that machine works, I told myself that my focus will be on collecting machines that I have never experienced. Well, the Supernova won. I'm treadling a Necchi Supernova Ultra. I figured a way around the bobbin cover issue and treadling belt -Sebastian helps.

Monica Wow! So does this mean the 328 is no longer a treadle? I have to admit I really like the Necchi as a treadle! How does she feel when treadling and are there any issues with the zig zag? It looks good on your sample!
I love the looks of this machine and the color!

Hollyann, I also can't wait to see the photos! Geeze, you are fast!

I don't know if anyone told you about your new machine. I looked in the photo section. All I got to see was the very top, for some reason sometimes I don't get the whole photo. It is like my computer times out or something because I get part of a photo sometimes and other times the whole photo. Anyone else ever have this problem?

Anyway, I can't see the machine only the very top. From what I can see, it looks like you have a 128 because it looks like you have a machine with the La Vincendora decals which were only done on the 28/128. If your machine is 3/4 size, it is a 28. If the machine is full size, it is a 128.

What I have is the box and the last picture of parts and attachments. Now does any one know just what I got and what machines the needle plates work on? I can't copy the picture of it to here, but here's the site I found it on:

any help would be appreciated.

Janis I have a bunch of those mystery feet and those exact cover plates also. However, mine came in a white plastic case ....

I am going to try the photos sections again later today to see if I can get the whole photo! Anyway Monica, I can't see your whole quilt either! Darn!

You guys know you are suppose to 'talk' about the machines/pictures here? The photo shop is suppose to be limited to pictures, otherwise we will have gobs of pages of text to sift through to find the photos! Sorry, I am not trying to be mean, but this is the reason we started the photo shops - to keep those shops for photos and descriptions of those photos only!

Nancy, please correct me if I'm wrong...weren't both the 28 and 128 3/4 size machines? (The 27 and 127 full size?) Holly has the 128, evidenced by the "high" bobbin winder....or that's what I thought.

And yes, you're right...I sometimes forget which thread I'm in...I apologize for the comments I left over there in the photos only thread!

Hmmmm. My 128 is a 3/4 size machine.

The 128 I put in a charity auction was also a 3/4 machine. The 127-3 I have is a full size machine and needs some serious help which will happen later.
