Crossstitcher

Haven't been on the board for a long time. I was recovering from a Thyroid Cancer operation. But, tried to stay busy. Here is a quilt I made for our grandson with a cross stitched Coat of Arms in his name. The next one is for a friend of ours and just used left over material from grandson's quilt. Both are hand quilted. First quilt was made on 1951 30l machine. Second was made on a 319 machine.

Some squares are the same in both and some are different. Used E. Burns Underground Railroad for some of the patterns.

Crossstitcher, those quilts are just beautiful! I'm sure your grandson and friend were just elated with your gifts. Hope you continue to heal and will add you to our prayer list.

And when my Newly purchased treadle is running I'll start sewing on her and share. Actually I sew on a 401A and 600 Singer all the time. I do have a small Janome I bought due to being light weight and easy to carry. BUT once I got a rolling case. my good old machines go sewing with me.

I pieced this on my featherweight and quilted it on a singer 127-4 treadle that has been in my family for 5 generations.

Thrillhouse,
Very pretty Bento Box quilt. You can see the last one I made in my avatar photo.

Beautiful! Love the colors and fabrics you used.

Thank you! The print fabrics were a Moda jelly roll, Glamping.

I was mistaken about my treadle, it's actually a 27. Fantastic for quilting. This is my first quilt on that machine and I know there will be many more. I'm not scared of quilting larger quilts anymore. The 27 can do anything. I'm going to practice fmq one day soon too.
