I love the 301A. I use mine a lot, great little machine and it has real value as a collectable too.

You may want to reconsider selling that - at least give it a chance to show off before you do!
The feed dogs drop and it's a GREAT machine for stippling!

You can get a darning foot at Hancocks = a generic slant-needle foot for cheap.

It uses regular needles and works fantastic with cotton thread (these old machines LOVE cotton thread)

You can also pick up some bobbins at Hancocks - as others have said, it uses the same bobbins as the Featherweight.

What a great machine. I have not seen this one yet. Hope you keep it. If not, give me a PM.

I have a beige/tan one like this....from the '50's...my mom used to make our clothes with it. It still sews great!

I love the 301. In fact I gave up my FW and bought the 301. It's gear driven rather than belt so it's more powerful. It has a larger throat too. The dogs drop so it's great for FMQ too.

Nice machine! Hope you take the time to sew on it, before giving it up! Might change your mind! :)
