    Default From Don-isewman--pictures of 2 quilts, and the sewing machine I used

    I just finished 2 more quilts. Now all of my 10 grdkids, now, have 3 quilts each. I will mention 9 are bio kids. But my grdaughter out east has a sister. So I count her. Also the 2 quilts, that I sewed together. I used my 1924/99 singer machine. It took me a little time to get the hang of useing it. I kept trying to use the pedal on my reg machines. I have a knee control. Everyone take care Don-isewman[ATTACH=CONFIG]456843[/ATTACH]Here is my machine I used.[ATTACH=CONFIG]456844[/ATTACH]Here is my grdsons quilt. Useing 1/2 sq triangles, I got from a[ATTACH=CONFIG]456855[/ATTACH]Ellens star from quilterscache.com[ATTACH=CONFIG]456850[/ATTACH]A full view of the quilt. Nothing fancy for a border.

    My favourite is Ellen's Star. I like the pale pink you used forming a "shadow" effect. Very subtle choice of colour Lovely.
