    It almost looks like a Bento Box quilt.

    Yes it is a Bento Box, except you cut it differently. I saw it on a blog and now can't find who to credit it to, sorry. Normally it is cut into equal quarters, but this is cut 1.5 inches from the edge of the center square (which is 5 inches) thus you get a 1.5 inch and a 3.5 inch square and two rectangles in the center.

    You did a great job both in using your vintage 201-2 and creating your own logo panto. My hat is off to you.


    And, Pennycandy, your QAYG is beautiful. Great job.

    Both are really beautiful. I would like to make a quilt on my treadle. The stitching on these older machines are beautiful!
