| My DH came back from a business trip last night with a Singer 221 for me to add to my collection. Its in mint condition with the case, attachments etc. The paint and filagree are intact. I have mainly historic toy machines and I was curious if anyone knows where I might obtain a manual for it and possibly a couple more bobbins. I'd like to use it as well as display it. |

This is a free pdf for your manual. I am sure if you did a google search there are used machine dealers that would carry the bobbins. www.singer-featherweight.com/singfea.pdf |

Thanks for the info Joanne, I printed the manual. Also I enjoyed your email Libby. I was so excited I decided to piece some scraps together for a yellow brick road quilt. I used the 221 and it worked great. Its such a nice size I'm going to use it in the family room instead of dragging my big Bernina out of the sewing room when I want to be with the rest of the family. Lori |

| I picked up 25 bobbins on EBAY for a very good price b4 Christmas. This might be an option for you as well. |
