Chris hard at work on the Home at Last quilt

The machine is called a Legacy and is made by Neal Iund Technical in Utah. Neal takes an older machine (Bernina 217 not made anymore) and customizes it for his clients so it has a second life as a brand new machine. He has a website: www.legacyquilt.com

Chris works under close supervision from her Airedales, Ben (left) and Maddie (right)
