Grace -- Here is your quiltlet being manufactured while camping with my favorite 1930 Jones hand crank machine. DH kindly turned on the generator so I could use a real iron.
I don't mind seeing snow every once in a while but don't like driving in it. We only see it here every 20 years or so and it never sticks long enough to shovel.

Judith - you must be multi-talented to use that hand crank machine. I have a Jones handcrank and I can't get the hang of guiding the fabric with my left hand and cranking with my right. LOL!
What can you use for a non-real iron?

I love sewing with the hand crank; you can go just as slow asa you want if you need to for accuracy. The non-real iron is the old flat iron I put on the stove to heat.

Judith, Beautiful quiltlet and awesome hand crank machine. I think I prefer the treadle to the hand crank so I can use two hands for everything else.

Was there a thread that started this exchange? I'd like to read up a bit on the quiltlets.
