Someone suggested it was a Featherweight but I was certain it couldn't be because it's so heavy. Then I thought about how heavy my regular Singer is an decided it may be a Featherweight after all. Your quilt is lovely.<br />Nancy from joy for graceNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-79130723820214782532012-12-08T14:28:02.652-06:002012-12-08T14:28:02.652-06:00Hi again, I forgot to tell you that I did order th...Hi again, I forgot to tell you that I did order the Featherweight 221 book from Amazon and receiced it while I was home in England.<br /><br />Thanks again.blackenpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01375922894273473624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-18751042527538965742012-11-22T02:46:07.102-06:002012-11-22T02:46:07.102-06:00Hi there, just found your blogg through threading ...Hi there, just found your blogg through threading my way!

It's so quiet and makes such nice stitches. I just aim the thread at the general vicinity of the needle hole and usually hit it after two or three tries.
