I bought a Singer Featherweight at an auction today and have a question

I call my featherweight "my baby", and I love it! I use it when travelling to sew-ins, etc. It's just wonderful for getting that perfect 1/4" seam! I got mine from a friend whose mother-in-law had been the sole owner. The original receipt was still in the case, along with a soft paint brush that she used to clean it. The funniest thing, though, was the package of needles marked "old needles". I guess she thought she'd save those "just in case"! Mine also has a feed dog cover...useful for free motion or darning (if anyone does that anymore). I actually bought a new free motion foot, but I'm afraid that doing that kind of work might be too much for the FW. What do you think? Has anyone used it for FM quilting?

I know. It's all those little things you didn't even know existed - let alone knew anything about. It's fantastic. Thanks Pati. . In message , KJ writes

What a great deal! What have you named her?

FW are lightweight. They sew a consistent straight stitch. They go and go and go and go. And they're soooo cute!

Enjoy,
