Are you saying to quilt the rooster or the background, or both? If quilting the rooster, how would you quilt him, around each feather? Thanks

Rupert is gorgeous. Yes I would quilt him first. Would love to see a picture after he is quilted and framed.

He's Cute! You should quilt him. It will just bring more life to him. You are a great quilter. It's a good way to showcase your skills & hang him on the wall.
