    Featherweights are wonderful little machines. They last forever and if the motor runs, probably just needs cleaning and oiling. Lucky you.

    Default From Don-isewman--Maybe a apology

    I think last month I posted a picture of my lucky penny feather weight sewing machine. Apparently I gave the wrong info on my machine. With the info on my machine I gave a date of 1924. With help from my 2 other antique sewing machine sight(facebook). I was told this is the date of my machine--1933-35. Serial # AD940584 Don-isewman

    I agree, no apology necessary. We are all getting older, even the younger members and we all make mistakes. Hope you are enjoying your new featherweight!

    This is the information I saved from the Singer site - indicating your machine is a 221-1 from 1935. It was made in the Elizabethport factory in Elizabeth, NJ. I hope you are enjoying sewing on it.
