    that is a wonderful base for your machine! i love the quilt pattern touch too. it's really cute. your husband did a super job with it!

    i think it looks like a zipper foot too. otherwise the needle would go in the center of the foot.

    I have a 99K and it has a stitch reverse. Are you sure it is a 99? Maybe so. However, I just love your machine base. You 'd better hug him good.[your husband, that is]

    It's probably a pretty early 99 - notice that there are no numbers on the tension assembly. Nygal, is the stitch length set by tightening/loosening that thumbscrew on the riser?

    Love the base your DH made for you! Like the quilt box, too. How clever. Looks like a zipper foot to me...
