I had a great few days of piecing and machine applique – I had a great time and there was hardly a hitch!
These are 16 cottages from the book Fig Tree Quilts Houses. I’ll be putting in black sashings, two scrappy borders on either side of a pinwheel block border. This will be a happy quilt for me – I’ve have always wanted a house quilt but never got this far.
Then I got crazy with machine applique, and got caught up on Sindy Rodenmayer’s Fat Cat Patterns Summer Pond. I had a few already done, and got four more sewn. I am looking forward to seeing the whole quilt, and it sure is a different theme than my usual flowers and piecing!

Both quilts look great! Isn't Sindy's site a great resource?
By the way, I went to look at your album of vintage machines, but it didn't seem to be there. I wanted to compare your collection to mine. LOL
I love your collection of vintage machines! It reminds me that I really should take pictures of mine - I have a Raymond Treadle, Singer Treadle, Wheeler & Wilson - well - you get the general idea. The only one pictured on my blog so far is the Kaiser handcrank.
