    My neighbor's son has achieved his Eagle Scout level, and his awards ceremony is next week. As a present to him for his excellent achievement, I made him a quilt with the Boy Scout fabrics from the Robert Kaufman line. I always use some type of decorative stitching to finish off my bindings; so, I picked the arrowhead for his quilt. All of my work (piecing, quilting, and binding) was done on vintage sewing machines that are all in treadles.
