I finally finished the quilted cover for my 9W-7
A year or so ago when I finished my #2 9W7 cabinet repair I said I was gonna make a quilt with it.

Well, I didn't say how big of a quilt so I decided to make a quilted cover to protect all the work I did on the wood.

To be exact I made a Whacky quilted cover.

The backing is fleece, I didn't get a pic of it.
I had fits from the start to the finish on it. I mentioned that in this thread:
{ http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...g-t251525.html } about the wrong way bobbin, and then had a very difficult time keeping my quilting lines straight. Granted I was doing it freehand sort of, but they look like an intoxicated snake trying to cross the road.
Nonetheless the cover is finished;

cat tested and approved ...
Now I wont be worrying about the wood getting scratched up.

Great job on both the treadle and the cover! Your quilting lines look fine to me. Since you pointed them out I looked close and I couldn't see the problem. Your cat doesn't seem to mind either.

The cover was 100% made and quilted on the treadle. No e-machines were used.
