I like the fabrics in the axehead or apple core quilt. But I must be the only person on this planet that dislikes this pattern since it reminds me of a woman's sanitary napkin.

I never liked that pattern either and I don't care for the bow tie pattern.

I would have carried that Tikka, 15 sewing machine head home with me. I would have tossed some clothes for that machine. It would replace my singer 15. Love the bird!
