My mom had a little Singer sewing machine called a Featherweight. She sewed all sorts of things on it. My sister and I learned how to sew on it.
In high school I made all of my dresses and some slacks on that Featherweight.
When my mom went into assisted living I brought the Featherweight home with me. Now I have a couple of fancy, expensive sewing machines that I love. But whenever I want a really nice stitch, or have something with heavy fabric that'shard to stitch through, I have always gone to my Featherweight.

Nick likes to watch online auctions and occasionally he will see a Featherweight sewing machine. If I do bid on the auction, I have always been outbid. But now this time!
I big on this machine and I won! It was over $200.00, but it people are buying the same machine for over $500.00!
Here's my new "Baby"!
