Ok this has me wondering, I know I am the minority here being a guy and all (you will never here me complain about being surrounded by women :D ) but how many of us quilt on a treadle?
It can either be making the top to doing the entire quilt like I do. And if you do what kind of machine do you use?
To me a quilt is like a piece of art that tells a story either about the quilter or something important to the quilter. When it is done on a treadle for me it takes it to a whole nother level, like going back in time and touching a piece of living history. When I am in my shop quilting with my treadle its like all time stopped at the door and I am back in the late 1800's to early 1900's depending on the machine I am using.
And after I finish a project I will hand embroider the date and the machine it was made on just to give it the final touch.
