Well here are a couple pictures of my new 1953 Featherweight! It is in really great shape -- I can't wait to take it with me to classes! These FW's are so cute, they look like toys! I still can't believe I got a FW for under $100 even after buying a new cord/plug!

Thank yo again Vintagemotif for thinking of me! I will enjoy!

That's a very pretty Featherweight! I have 3, a Centennial model,1957 and a tan.

That is a beautiful machine! And a really great price! I've been looking for one here in Chicago, and of corse on ebay, but really pricey. Congratulations!

Wow Billy, let us know if you get those machines and what they do!!!

You can't leave you guys in the shop too long, not even a day. You guys come up with the most interesting things to show off. Bo, that is a pretty FW. I haven't see Mz Johnny for a couple days around here. Is she diggin around in her orphan stock and looking for something else to work off of? Purple, are you going to show pics of the Cenntenial FW? Now, all you guys hang tight in the shop and keep your eyes out for Mz Johnny. Have fun.

Miz Johnny has been really quiet lately? Maybe she is busy making a quilt on one of her treadles!
