my boys love the fact that this one is made on the treadle, most of the fabric line is called a simpler time by moda. If DH likes it and wants it for our bed then I'll add a border if not then just binding and I will tie it instead of quilting.

Sometimes the simple is very dramatic. Love this quilt:)

Nice quilt...and very cool that you pieced it on a treadle. I pieced my very first one (and a few more that followed) on a treadle. They are fun to use....thanks for sharing your quilt :)

Oh, isn't that nice! Love the old fashioned look - just charming!

Depending upon the model, your treadle could be perfect for quilting it, too. :)

Personally, I haven't got the necessary coordination to treadle and doodle designs at the same time. (walking & chewing gum are still borderline problematic for me, too ;) ) But, some people get good at it and LOVE the extra control they have. You might want to give it a try. :)

Nice! Maybe you can try and quilt in on your treadle too. I think Billy does.
