She's a beauty!!

I would ask the seller the name of her grandmother and name her after her (unless of course her grandmother had an absolutely horrid name!!). If she did have a horrid name, then name her after whomever taught you how to sew.

Congratulations on your Featherweight!

Although mine was VERY CHEAP, she's absolutely pristine, but then, I didn't get a case or any attachments. But, there's not a scratch on her (she's white) and she still has the original factory inspection sticker on it (from 1954).

Enjoy your Featherweight! They're great machines!
