Description

This 1934 Singer Featherweight 221 is absolutely stunning in this 'Denim' blue color!  Completely restored inside and out - rest assured, this Featherweight 221 will be ready to sew right out of the case.  This machine is fitted with an original 110v motor that has been rewound to work at optimum speed and torque.  Be sure to click on any image above to view the beauty of this machine.  We have restored this machine with two-tone gold and silver decals to give it a little something-extra! These decals are available for purchase at the link here for your own Featherweight restoration.  (Props shown in photos are not included; see 'included with machine' list to see everything that is included.)

If you've never purchased a machine from The Featherweight Shop before, it is a rather distinguished experience.  Each one of our restored and repainted machines receive hours of personal care in their disassembly, painting process, reassembly, stitch sampling and overall Featherweight preparation for each and every customer.  As soon as your Featherweight arrives to you in the mail, you will also notice how fastidious we are in the packaging care and wrapping - making your Singer Featherweight purchase extra special and something you will always remember.

**************************

An 'AD' series machine is a must-have for any collection, and this one is very complete with an original type II case in stunning condition complete with the original handle, and an original matching metal controller. 

It also has an original Jan. 1934 manual in pristine condition - click on the photos to see where Singer glued the type II case diagram page over the original type I diagram to be consistent with the case that would have came with the machine.  These manuals are very rare, and this one is truly in the most remarkable condition.

Singer made this 1934 Featherweight (87 years ago), and the beautiful condition of these fragile accessories like the manual and case will be an element of distinction for the new owner. 

The cardboard box included with the machine is a high-quality REPLICA, and will make a great display to accompany the machine - it is not original.

 

All machines go through an electrical-safety inspection - of vital importance when making the upgrade, and most importantly, to have the assurance that your sewing machine is safe to "today's" electrical standards.  All you have to do is plug it in and begin sewing!

Are you a Quilter?  Additional Quilting Attachments can be purchased, and if you need any Fashion Aids for apparel or ornamental sewing (i.e. Buttonholer, Blind Stitcher, etc...), we will prepare samples for those as well should you decide to purchase them separately.

You can also rest knowing that the Original Bobbin Case is most definitely included, assuring you of an original quality stitch all these years later.  It is a delightful thought to think about some of the possible things that were lovingly sewn on this machine in its lifetime.  What will you add to its sewing repertoire - quilts? Apparel?  Whatever you sew, I’m sure your new Featherweight machine will be well-loved for many, many more years of sewing life.

The machine has been serviced and calibrated for quilter’s cotton, so you won’t have to worry about tension when you receive your machine, but having a numbered tension dial will make it easier to set it back should you need to adjust it for any reason.

The machine is fitted with an original striated faceplate and the original case includes the tray for holding the box of attachments, manual, etc..

Free Shipping in the USA through UPS Ground.  Your machine will be thoroughly and carefully packed ~ guaranteed to arrive to you safe and sound.
