Okay, I have never done a VQW. I am planning to quilt my 3rd quilt, which is another wall hanging. I just started quilting in April of this year which coincides with the start of me aquiring vintage Singer sewing machines.

This wall hanging will go above my patio doors in my living room. It is a Bargello from a pattern I found on line. I am sewing it on my 1932 Singer 15-88 treadle. I was not sure how to quilt it, so after getting a number of ideas I am going for gentle curves following the Bargello curves using a walking foot on the treadle. I did a practice piece with some of the leftover strips and I like the effect. Should be fun and interesting.

Here is the finished top:

And this was my practice piece. I surprised myself by doing this because I very rarely sample when I weave, I kind of just jump in and see what happens. The color blocks and alignment are very different from the top but I was able to practice the curves on the treadle machine.
