MUV, again another pretty quilt from you! For the seams you may want to try ironing them open. I once read of a quilter that preferred that method over the ironing to one side the seams together method. Although, I can't recall her reason for using this method, but it could be for the quilting.

I pieced this LC with my Free treadle, the first I've used a treadle, lots of fun![ATTACH=CONFIG]319821[/ATTACH]

Bennett, great baby boy's quilt!
Muv, I love the doll quilt. Isn't it fun to quilt with a 15! I love to use my 15-88 for FM - in fact, that is all I use that machine for!
Nancy great log cabin lap quilt! I have used my Free #5 for piecing too, although, not so much now a days as I use either my Eldredge Two Spools, or my 319w! But, I still love my Free #5, a great machine to use!
Nancy
Ps I think I already told you Monica, that your stars are just exquisite!

Jillnjo - love the log cabin! Using blue for the centre squares is really effective. Piecing a log cabin on a treadle is definitely on my list of things to do... Why does my list get longer every time I look at this thread?

I started a couple of BOM that I thought I would only watch. I find it fun to see the quilts made with vintage machine along with all the quilts on the QB.
