Beautiful! A veritable rainbow! I wish I still had my auntie's 1930s treadle Singer - you've made a lovely job of this quilt and have shown that you don't need the latest electronic gizmo to make a work of art! Well done!

I use a 1930 Singer treadle machine and it does straight line quilting real good, but it is not so fussed on the free motion and luckily I really enjoy handsewing so I do the quilting that way unless just wanting straight line quilting

So beautifully hand done, I love the extra sashing and border space that sets the blocks off so nicely.
