My grandma gave me one, which I still have.

I wrote a little about them here http://quilts-vintageandantique.blogspot.com/2011/01/ruby-mckim-quilts.html. It's not but it is still a wonderful quilt. Any sampler quilt you can find today is a must have.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11922051522442269976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5495509534817984313.post-303305704796797792011-05-24T15:48:02.567-05:002011-05-24T15:48:02.567-05:00Lovely Quilt Dawn- Not sure I could have resisted ...Lovely Quilt Dawn- Not sure I could have resisted that one either.

One of my daughters gave me a rocker like the one on the left but mine has an upholstered back as well as seat and no pocket behind for scissors. There are no markings on mine but I doubt it's an old one.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15685952017183050898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5495509534817984313.post-61696312827883013562011-05-24T08:15:42.992-05:002011-05-24T08:15:42.992-05:00The Featherweight is a fun machine.
