Featherweight

Look at the charming little Featherweight that my husband's grandmother gave us after she no longer had much use for it! The machine was made in Scotland in 1958 and still runs beautifully. I've read up on how these machines have been made to last and I sure believe it.

The machine came with a neat black carrying case which holds the pedal nicely in place under the lid. We also have the original green-covered manual which comes in handy whenever we have to oil the machine (apparently in about 30 places!). It's really convenient to have a sewing machine down at the condo now and I will make it my goal to put it to use regularly.
