Thanks for the information Jennifer.   The International Quilt Show is this weekend in Cincinnati, so going to check there first.  Then Paducah at the end of the month.  If no luck then I know that I can check out this site, as well as knowing a price range. I would love to have the original box refurbished, but I am sure that is way outside of my financial capabilities.

Hi Beth

sewingonline.com sells repro cases for about $70...or you could try ebay. I just got my featherweight today and it does not have a seam guide. I was looking online for one and that is how I know who has cases. I have ordered from the website I gave you and they are very good and I have always been pleased.

Just got my first Featherweight a few months ago thru a local online auction.  I want to take a class on how to take care of it and use of it.  Does anyone know where you can get cases for them.  Unfortunately, the case that came with this one is missing its bottom.  The insert is still intact with the instruction book, attachments, etc.

My featherweights and 301 machines are my "go to" machines as well.

My Featherweights are my "go to" machines when my expensive fancy ones aren't cooperating.  I can always count on them to do the job.  Just think how amazing it is that machines made from the 1930s-1960s are still going strong.  Today's computerized machines can't even begin to compare.
