Treadle Quilts

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.

About Me

Jacqui's Quilts: I have been quilting since 1989 and do most of my quilting on a 1951 Singer 15-88 treadle sewing machine. My husband and I collect antique and vintage sewing machines and enjoy finding, cleaning, restoring and sewing on them together. Well, my husband doesn't do much sewing :-). But, when we demonstrate machines at museums or other shows, we have a stack of patches ready. Someday, there will be enough four patches to make into a quilt!
