a kaffe telephone ☺ |
This blog is intended as a bulletin board to show the quilts I've been making on my vintage and treadle sewing machines. My husband and I collect antique and vintage sewing machines and I use them to make all my quilts. Here are some of the results.

A telephone for a friend
My friend Lynn had a birthday recently and since she is retired from the Bell Telephone Company, this 12" x 18" mini quilt from Lori Holt's alphabet book was the perfect gift for her. The center is embroidered. I had hoped to find small number buttons to add, but could not find those. It is quilted with simple straight lines. This project was a quick in between project and was not on the UFO list :-).

I have to admit that I squealed a little bit when this showed up in my email. I am also a Retired Bell person and love anything with a telephone on it, especially one of the "old" style.
Oh how fun Brenda! As soon as I bought Lori's book, I planned to make it for my friend's birthday...it was perfect :-). And, yes, those old style phones always make me smile....great memories or the 'olden days' LOL.
How cute!
