    very nice I love the colors and the stitching on the fabric.

    no,, i don't think it was much different... i did it on my 1941 singer.. it handled it just fine.. and this particular fabric isn't heavy... i enjoyed watching this one come alive.. can't wait to finish it up.. i am going to do another one just like it but in reverse..

    Reversing the fabrics will also be absolutely gorgeous. A whole different personality.
