LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: One of the finest people you’ll ever meet! Blake…so good to see you on youtube.
Great info on sewing machines but, remember, the old ones were made with all metal gears and parts, thus, built to outlast anything made currently.
Still making Featherweights…old sewing ladies never pass away, they just keep you in stitches.
Hope you and yours are well and please say Hi to everyone for me! Angie

2010 Feb 21 3Hi Blake – Your …
Hi Blake – Your video clip very interesting – do you know anything about The Peerless sewing machine White – Ohio dated 1881 – for example how many were produced – I recently purchased one and its just adorable. Years ago I found a Featherweight sewing machine and can understand why they hold their value. This Peerless machine seems special – do you regard it as a special machine? Thanks
