My 221 has a beautiful story. I sold her to a friend when I bought a newer Singer and soon regretted doing that. My df became very ill anf few years later she died. About 6 months after her death a semi pulled up in front of my home and the driver came to my door carrying a package. Much to my surprize my 221 had come home. Glenda's husband had sent her home. I cried tears of sadness and joy. As you probably know all Feather Weights are named and mine is Glenda. Kathy

Posted - Sep 27 2020 : 8:57:45 PM The FeatherWeight Shop is my go-to for accessories for my machine also. I have a little black child's size machine that my dad bought for me when I was 5. Through the years the tension spring has been broken off and I have looked forever for a replacement. Kathy |
