    Came with all of that. Just didn't take a picture of it. Too excited to get her running I guess!

    The first time I saw one in person, I thought it was a toy machine! The Featherweight is a 1/2 sized machine. The Singer Spartan someone mentioned earlier is actually a 3/4 size machine, a bit bigger but a lot heavier...

    Wow, love your featherweight (I am still saving $$$ for one and hope to find one built in 1956 the year I was born)

    Welcome to the FW club. You all got me hooked on them but they are grand. Can't wait to take mine on retreat in November.
