All of my quilts are made on vintage machines, namely my Singer 401A, and then either hand quilted or machine quilted on my Bernina Record 830 from the '70's.

And the pieced back. The appliqued flower in the middle of the strip is the label.
I have yet to make a complete quilt on my FW...

Monica, I'd love to see your Necchi some day. I would love to see how you use the adjustable throat plate. I think it's so cool. Don't you just love how PP makes all your points perfect? It came out very nice!

Happyquiltmom, you did a beautiful job on your quilt and I love the way you incorporated your label on the back. I also love doing free motion quilting on my Bernina Record 830 from the 70s. I am its original owner. Somehow I can get the most natural rhythm with it.

The cherry blossoms reminded me of springtime in DC, so I got the kit and will be making it with a few modifications.
Nancy, thank you for your kind words. I'm just happy that DH likes it!
