What a lovely guest room and your quilts are just perfect.....Gone fishing and Gone fishing Again....is all I can come up with! I need to put the brakes on the rest of my life for a bit and get back on my machines....don't have time for myself at all lately...just a bit of handquilting in the evenings....

Found this sweetie at an estate sale (http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...y-t226579.html). Quick cleaning, oiling and a belt and here's her first project. It wasn't her fault that I sewed a row wrong and had to redo it! And this is a much better machine than the clone I found so I think this should not be labeled a clone.

This is a quilt that I made this summer for my daughter. Cathy had given me a couple of boxes of jeans. I'm still working through that stash of denim. I saw this pattern on someone's blog, and I started working on the quilt right after reading the directions on piecing and assembling. Piecing was done on Two Spools and quilting with the Davis NVF.

Monica..... I love it. Is this one of those quilts that you quilt as you go? I can't imagine doing those skinny sashing lines between the denim. How did you do that? They are so perfectly straight and even. And the puppies on the back are so cute. .... love that, too.
I have a huge box of blue jeans that I've not wanted to throw away. I've been cutting out the seams and making pieces of fabric for future use.... this looks like a perfect idea for those denim pieces. I'd love to copy yours if I can figure out the skinny sashing.
