fs&fa FOR QUILT PIECING, Doll Clothes Piecing, Children Clothes Piecing – FINEST IRON AVAILABLE AT ANY PRICE!
Hi, if you are a quilter & FW lover, then you may wish to own the MAIN
ACCESSORY purchased to compliment Singer Featherweights, etc. back then by new sewing machine buyers of the time. This item was a superior quality FW Iron designed and manufactured to compliment the Singers by several top appliance makers. These were designed with a “dual purpose” to compliment Singer colors and for sewing room use/convenience, as well as to travel with Singer 221/222s Featherweights, etc. When mirror-polish restored for superb glide (less burned fingers/effortless piecing) combined with a compact easy to maneuver iron profile for small pieces & individually cotton-calibrated ESPECIALLY FOR PIECING (to allow you the extra few moments you need without scorching your cherished fabric); these are the FINEST PIECING IRONS YOU CAN BUY AT ANY PRICE then or today! Don’t confuse these with non-restored similar models. The differences are like night and day. These exclusive FW Irons perform better than when they were new due to exact individual cotton-calibration and professional mirror-polishing for extraordinary glide. The manufacturers of the time could not afford to incorporate these additional iron refinements cost effectively into these irons due to the cost of the additional skilled labor and machining required for a mass produced iron. Simply, this additional refining of the irons would have been them too expensive as they were already very costly to buy for sewers of the time. We are doing these value-adding refinements to these vintage and collectible irons, because there is a demand today for a superb piecing iron for use by discerning quilters, doll clothes makers, child’s clothes makers, etc. These FW Irons actually traveled with Singer Featherweights back then, so it has been a long time marriage. We uncovered this information in our appliance collecting history research. Look at some of our pictures of these FW Irons. You’ll see for yourself! For example, one FW Iron which leaves no doubt as to the manufacturer’s intent is the FW Iron designed to compliment Singer’s tan or white Featherweights and Singer’s two-tone color designs as well. Many travelers mended their clothing on trips, as basic clothing was not an inexpensive “throw-away” imported item as it is today found at Walmart, etc. So, these FW Irons were needed and were not just frivolous accessories. Most families then had at least one person who sewed (usually a female member, but many men sewed as well!). Small travel sized machines such Singer FW’s (with a FW Iron) were included as a part of the luggage for the trip, especially for extended trips. The mentality of today’s “throw-away” society was NOT present back then and thus the marketing of premium compact FW Irons too. Singer Featherweights were very expensive proportionately back then, and so were these FW Irons of equal quality to the Singers. These FW Irons were described by the best manufacturers as the second iron for the household’s sewing room as well as a perfect presentation gift for all occasions. You see proportionately in terms of relative dollar value back then, these FW Irons were very expensive due in part to the high quality that went into them initially, which makes them great to use today if restored and properly calibrated. So as these were expensive, the giving of one as a gift was perfectly acceptable. FYI, we have two on ebay right now! Or you can buy one direct with far more model choices if you wish from our web site. We offer multi-item discounts. (Designed to compliment Black Featherweights – FYI, Quilters with NEW Viking, Bernina, Janome sewing machines etc. buy these too!)
