Can you do this with a Featherweight? Not sure if it was oiled but think it may have been. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks,
Elaine

Hubby says when you start taking in strays you have become adpotive parents of old sewing machines. We have several singers so we must have a quartet or a choir.
