I sized this quilt to drape over the back of the couch- Carve a few pumpkins and I am done decorating for Halloween. Laura
When I did this quilt cover for my #2 Singer 66 treadle,
I started having puckers and crinkles on the binding so I switched to a walking foot.
Although it doesn't properly fit the feed dogs of the 66 it did help immensely.
