My first

I've been working on Natalie's scrap quilt (must come up with a better name).

Since this is a bonus quilt and no one knows I'm making

another quilt for the new baby

I decided to play a little.

If it didn't work out I could ditch the quilt and no

one would be the wiser.

I'm not finished with it but I

have to share with someone.

My first feathers on a quilt !!

I have been drawing and drawing

and finally decided to go for it.

I am so excited.

Are they show quality? No.

Is every one perfect? No

But I don't think they're bad for the first time.

I'm trying to decide whether or not to do a little

micro strippling around the outside.  There's not a lot of room

so I don't know if it would add anything.

One more so you can see the borders.

Beading in the white narrow border

and freehand feathers on the outer border.

I pieced together the Hobbs wool batting I had left

from Stevie's teachers quilt and added a layer of Warm

and Natural.  Love the effect.

Hopefully, I made pictures of the "good" feathers.

So exciting.

  Thanks for visiting and letting me share.

DH doesn't quite get it.

Sister doesn't know what a quilted feather is.

So glad I can share with blog friends.



Sorry, just one more

Can't wait until I finish.
