It's not a quilt, yet, but here are some quilt squares that I made from "crumbs" and they were sewn on my Singer 301. This machine was able to sew the smallest scraps together without "eating" them.

BTW, nice job on your Blues/Whites quilt.

Here are a couple of pictures of a quilt I made for my daughter. Her favourite colours are pink and green, but not necessarily together. It's the Sister's Choice pattern shown on Bonnie Hunter's website. The top was pieced on the Frister and Rossmann 1937 transverse shuttle which is shown in the thread Vintage Sewing Machine Shop Photos, http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-130994-6.htm and it was long arm quilted at the quilt shop. On the picture of the machine you can see the back of this quilt. It's hard to get a good photo of this quilt, the colours always look bleached out.
I hope you particularly like the bad join in the border by the corner.
I've already posted another quilt, which was pieced on a vintage Singer, at http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-132615-1htm

I always do the border as blocks rather than a continuous strip

I made a crumb quilt using my Singer 201K for the piecing and a Husqvarn Viking Sapphire 875 (the new girl) for the
machine quilting.

1936 Singer 201K treadle, it has the hand crank on because 2 little girls were learning to sew.
