I'm glad you're enjoying it, too. It makes me sad to see people put their quilt away and not use it.

It says on the front that it was made in Rockport Illinoise and there are two medallions on it with naked ladies on them! yep..naked as jaybirds! The one on the left says: Expositione Universelle" and the one on the right says " Republique Francoise". Can anyone tell me anything about this beautiful lady?

My hubby would love the one with the naked ladies.

I have this same machine. I think you can call Janome for information on it. I believe the model is NLR. New Home, Light Running. I have this in a treadle model and mine is missing its bobbin case

Miriam - what good news from the test result! I am happy for you all. Diaper sounds must be great fun for the little fellow! I hope he is back to himself real soon.

Miriam, good to hear - though it's strange to see "strep and staff infections" treated as the lesser evil. I know they are but those are wicked enough all on their own.

Miriam, good to hear he is doing better and also that it's not a super bug. Those super bugs are nasty things.
