Singer Featherweight Sewing Machine / Singer 221 / Precision Quilting / Singer Featherweight / Portable Featherweight

Thank you for viewing our Store,

We have for sale a Charming Vintage Singer 221- portable featherweight sewing machine and carrying case. Serial # is non-legible, without the serial number we can not give an accurate manufacturing date, but the decal design on this machine dates it in the mid to late 1950s. This machine has an original 110-volt motor and beautiful chrome trim. The machine and attachments are in good vintage condition. We’ve had several machines in the last few years and this one purrs. The case is in good vintage condition showing wear consistent with age and use.

This is a very nice machine finished in that classic deep gorgeous shiny black featherweight paint, gold decals and chrome trim that shows minimal wear. The original foot pedal and electrical cord still makes the motor hum. The carrying case is also in fair nice condition with original hardware, handle. Please see all photos as they are part of the item’s description.
We have cleaned, oiled and greased the machine. After cleaning greasing and oiling the machine we properly test the machine to make sure it runs and operates as intended.

Our shipping charge includes meticulous packing to ensure no damage occurs during transit. Every shipment we have done has arrived undamaged even as far away as Alaska.

The I. M. Singer and Company began making sewing machines in 1851. In 1933, the company debuted the ‘featherweight’ machine at the Chicago World’s Fair. During WWII, the company’s factories were retooled to support war related machinery needs. In 1945, when they changed back to manufacturing sewing machines, the featherweight was their most popular and reliable brand. The Singer featherweight has long been a cherished machine for quilting and sewing due to its precise sewing capability and easy portability.
