Since I got my Singer 301 I make all my quilts on it, just seems like they turn out so pretty and don't seem to have the problems that I had before I got her. That gentle purr just makies me want to sew and sew!! I have 4 other sewing machines but "Agie Pearl" is my "go to" girl. I think my mom, (her name was Agnes Pearl) who was a fabulous sewer/quilter is watching over me and Agie. Thanks mom!!!!!

Five vintage machines went to work to help me make this quilt.
Piecing was done with Eldredge Two Spools and Singer 201.
Purple decorative stitching with Singer 328K in treadle.
Quilting and attaching binding with Davis NVF.
Decorative stitching to finish off binding with Singer 401A, the only electric machine used.
This was a "quilt as you go" project. Front of quilt.

Oh my goodness - all those big quilts taking shape! I've been seriously sidetracked by the doll quilt swaps, all part of the learning process for when I do my first big quilt quilted at home. I am studying all your quilts for inspiration...
In the meantime, here is my second doll quilt for November, just the same as the last one but with the lights and darks reversed.

Vintagemotif: Very nice! A QAYG is on my to-do list. Did you piece the blocks and then quilt them to the backing and batting pieces? I've seen some that are more sew-and-flip, but yours doesn't look like that.
