I have decided to assign a "task" to each of the sewing machines that I will be using to make the Quilts For Veterans (c).  The four oldest machines will be for piecing the quilt tops.  The two machines from 1919 and 1926 will be for joining rows together, and two machines from 1952 and from 1968-72 will be for machine quilting should I decide to machine-quilt the quilts.

Below:  1872 Wheeler and Wilson No. 3, 1872 Howe (Stockwell) Model A, and 1897 Singer model 27 (against the wall) and in front of them, on the right is the 1891 Singer Fiddlebase model Vs2.  These will be for piecing.

On the left in the foreground in the photo above is the 1919 Singer model 66-3 that will be for joining rows.  Below is the 1923 Singer model 128 Hand-crank machine that will also be joining the rows.

And in the photo below are a 1952 Singer model 15-91 on the right and a Singer model 237 from 1968-1972 on the left.  These will be doing the machine quilting.

In addition, I have my 1937 Singer model 15-88 in the portable treadle which will be the machine I use should any of the other machines have a sewing issue.

I will be adding my 1931 White Family Rotary electric to the line-up as well.  The labels will be sewn on with a modern desktop portable sewing machine, shown below.

Update:  The 1931 White model 31 was donated to honor my father's generosity.  The model 237 electric has been sold, as has the 1923 Singer model 128 hand crank.  These machines were "extra" in that I wasn't using them enough for the quilts.  I have added a newer, modern machine, the Brother LX3014, a fairly inexpensive but sturdy 2016 machine.
