Got to have a parlor cabinet for a machine that royal. What a beauty!

Nice looking machine! Was the quilt behind it already there behind the Standard, or did you select it for that photo? The quilt and the machine really look nice together.

Thanks, it was hanging even though it's too big for the space. It's a row quilt that my Block Swapper group did 2 yrs. ago based on Sandy Gervais' Grand Finale line colorways. I love the colors especially in the fall but I'll never do a row quilt again.

She is a pretty machine! Nice to see a Minnesotan get that machine.

The Minnesota was one of the first lines of sewing machines sold by the Sears Co. as they started business in Minnesota. I've been thinking I should call her a more elegant name like Nokomis, she's so lovely but I'll probably forget and call her Minnie anyway. Every one in MN should have a Minnesota of their own. You just won't believe the rich color of the decals unless you can see one in person. Thank you again & again Macybaby & DH!
