Hi from Dallas
 
I came here for the Vintage Machine talk, and I love the whole site. :) So many pretty quilts! I've machine quilted simple blankets for our seven kids throughout the years. I crochet a lot, knit a little, paint some, and love photography. I'm currently working on refurbishing my husband's Grandmother's 1923 treadle Singer model 66. I would really like to make each one of the kids and grandkids a quilt on it once it's finished. Happy to be here!

Waving hello from rainy overcast Maryland! Good quilting day here - I don't feel like getting all muddy in the garden.

Thanks for all the welcomes! Unfortunately the quilts I made were in the film days, and I'm not even sure I took pictures. Sometimes with seven kiddos, it was run as fast as you can every day and fall in bed at night. Ha ha Things are a little slower, or I'm a lot older now. :)

Thanks again everyone!

edit: Wait! I have a quilt top that I messed around with applique, and I never finished it. I worked on this while listening to the OJ trial. I'll always remember that. I could possibly dig that out and get a picture of it. Thanks for the memory jogger.

I'm not a really good seamstress, so this isn't the quality of quilts that I see here. It was mainly me messing around. Most of the blankets I made the kids were squares or rectangles. I've been afraid of triangles! The fabric from this one was from Mott's Drug Store in the 90's, so nothing fancy. These were scraps from dresses and things I made for my daughter. This quilt was to be for her. Now she's pregnant with her first. I should finish it and give it to her at her shower. It definitely looks 80's/90's to me, so she may not like it. ha ha
