Here are a couple of pictures of a quilt I made for my daughter. Her favourite colours are pink and green, but not necessarily together. It's the Sister's Choice pattern shown on Bonnie Hunter's website. The top was pieced on the Frister and Rossmann 1937 transverse shuttle which is shown in the thread Vintage Sewing Machine Shop Photos, http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-130994-6.htm and it was long arm quilted at the quilt shop. On the picture of the machine you can see the back of this quilt. It's hard to get a good photo of this quilt, the colours always look bleached out.

I hope you particularly like the bad join in the border by the corner.

I've already posted another quilt, which was pieced on a vintage Singer, at http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-132615-1htm

I always do the border as blocks rather than a continuous strip
