The improved model, which followed three years later, had a re-worked bobbin case and a numbered dial which took the guesswork out of tension setting. Production of the Model 221 started in Kilbowie, Scotland in 1949. At that time, it was Singer's largest factory. The Elizabethport, NJ factory produced Singer machines from 1930-1960, including the Featherweight 221-1 model during the 1950s. And by the way, even though this sewing machine has always been known as “the Featherweight,” none of them has ever actually carried that name on the machine itself! The Featherweight was (and still is) such a popular sewing machine that whole books have been written about it. Nancy Johnson-Srebro’s book, Featherweight 221 - The Perfect Portable And Its Stitches Across History, Expanded Third Edition, states that “The many who are fortunate enough to own a Featherweight sewing machine possess a true American treasure. Most are still whirring away in sewing rooms and seminars across the country, others are valued for their comparative rarity and enjoy ‘collector status.’ Treat them with honor and love. Without a doubt, they are symbols of the last generation of American craftsmanship!” Payment Buy it Now items require immediate payment by Paypal.
