This 1959 Singer 222K Featherweight is a beautiful machine as can be seen in the photographs.

What a great Christmas gift for yourself or some other deserving person.

I specialize in Singer model 222K Featherweight sewing machines. I offer for sale top quality 222K Featherweights as well as their attachments and accessories.

All of the Featherweights that I sell have been thoroughly cleaned, serviced, lubricated and tested. The testing consists of the machine going through a final 9 point checklist before being listed. The checklist is given toward the end of the listing description.

This machine runs very smoothly and quietly. It sews a nice stitch.

The photographs are of the listed Singer 222K Featherweight.

THE 120 VOLTAGE MOTOR OPERATES SMOOTHLY. THIS 222K FEATHERWEIGHT WILL OPERATE IN THE USA AND CANADA.

NO VOLTAGE ADAPTER IS NEEDED. The sewing machine is ready to just plug in and play.

222K Featherweights were produced with Canadian or British motors. 222K Featherweights were not manufactured in the USA. To be original a 222K Featherweight must have a Canadian or British motor.

The serial number of this Featherweight is EP. This dates the machine to March 3, 1959.

222K Featherweights have the ability to easily lower and raise the feed dog using the sew/darn lever.

There are no missing or broken parts, no oily, brown cigarette smoke residue or other grunge to try to remove, no expensive repairs to be done, no surprises and no frustration.

The finish, which is bright and shiny, has some of the expected usage marks. The finish glows as can be seen in the photographs.

The light and switch both work as does the bobbin winder and the foot control.

The sewing bed is removable so that the machine can be used as a freearm sewing machine.

The bobbin case is included.

The throat plate is a graduated throat plate.

The attachments are shown below.

A reproduction of the 222K manual is included.

The left latch need assistance for closing. The case is clean both inside and out.

The stitches from this Featherweight are straight and tight with good tension and no skipping of the stitches. A sample of the stitching will accompany the sewing machine. It has been serviced and tested so that you can quilt, sew or proudly display the Featherweight upon its arrival.


Many consider the 222K Featherweight to be the ultimate in Singer sewing machine design and engineering. This is a wonderful example of the marvelous Singer Featherweight freearm sewing machine.


If you are looking for a 222K Featherweight that is in excellent cosmetic and working condition, clean and ready to sew out of the box this is a candidate.

If you are a quilter or you sew and never had the privilege of owning a Featherweight 222K you should consider buying one now. They are a favorite sewing machine of quilters worldwide because they are reliable, compact, lightweight, versatile and let’s face it they are so darn cute.


Featherweights are notorious for being damaged while being shipped. It is very important that they be carefully and properly packed. It takes over an hour to properly pack a Featherweight for safe shipment. I have packed and shipped many Featherweights and have the experience to provide safe shipping.
