    Cool Free Westinghouse Sewing Machine Type E

    The information I have is that this machine was made in the 1950's. Does anyone know if the feed dogs on this machine can be lowered for free motion quilting?

    Don't know. Best place to have put this thread would have been under the For Vintage & Antique Machine Enthusiasts.

    KittyD,

    According to the manual the feed dogs drop: Free bought out New Home and they made similar products under different names.

    Thank you Jon.. There's one for sale locally and I thought with the larger throat it would be good for free motion quilting.
