    I just purchased a "Singer Featherweight" came with 7 bobbins, narrow hemmer, zipper foot, roller foot, seam guide, manual, and a screwdriver. The machine was just serviced in Oct 2010, machine, footpedal, cord, sewing box and instruction manual are just like new shape no marks..... What a great find.

    Used it to sew the seams on my Affairs of the Heart quilt, and it is very quiet - just hums along...very happy with my new find.
