The last thing I am going to do is put my initials on the quilt with my 1961, 503A Rocketeer!

This is the first quilt I have put binding on with the Davis Vertical Feed! What a blast that was! She actually works!

Oh that is Tarzan the Man, my 3.5 pound chihuahua!
Beautiful! Nancy, I love that you shared with us how each machine that you used had a different task in assembling and creating this beautiful quilt. Happy to read that you got your Davis Vertical Feed working for you too. I love seeing the quilts that others create with their vintage machines. Thanks for sharing!
