    What a find, so nice to see them, I always thought they did such simple quilts, I see I was wrong.

    That's about as special as anything I've heard about lately.

    What a great machine! I have 3 antique machines, but none this old. I'm green with envy!

    After some research, I did find that the "Old Fashioned Nosegay" pattern was also called "Bride's Bouquet". Found it in my Better Homes & Gardens "America's Heritage Quilts", circa 1940, and it includes all the templates. Really thinking of giving it a try with some original 30s fabric a gal gave to me years ago. I thought it's be a great project for my 128 Singer hand crank. SEW excited.

    I think that's a great idea! I also thought maybe I would convert the Nosegay pattern to paper piecing because it would be a lot easier.
