So here it is, my first attempt at meandering feathers on a real quilt. I have done this once before on a solid coloured fleece throw that I posted a tutorial on and loved how it looked but I was worried that when I try it on a pieced quilt I would have trouble seeing were I was going. It went much nicer than I anticipated and I now have the confidence to quilt this one someone's quilt if asked. This is my Hopscotch quilt and I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, I just liked the fabrics and thought it would be a good practice quilt to try something new.
I love how it looks on the back!
I still have to bind it but couldn't wait that long to post pictures. I am going to use the purple fabric in the tiny border for the binding.
It has a great wholecloth feel when you look at the back.
Gorgeous!! Can't do those feathers...they are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Kathy....I have some 120" lovely soft cotton...one day I will do something similar...one day!

ReplyDeleteKathy, it is so inspiring to see how you just whip these quilts up and they turn out so beautiful. You have meandered your way into this beauty!G
ReplyDeletethe feathers are gorgeous-front and back!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful feathers. I like how they are giving the quilt texture in the photo of the quilt hanging on the line - they show up really well on the front, and then look like a wholecloth on the back.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I need to learn to do feathers.
ReplyDeleteLooks absolutely gorgeous!! I love all the texture on the back too!!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful quilting - the feathers look fabulous!
