Watched YouTube videos and then practiced a lot! Lots of times there might be more than one way to do something. My way of doing the feather stitch was backwards and I couldn't figure out how to put it in a triangle and curl. I watched several on line videos and then had to kind of re-train my direction of quilting. Then I even drew it on a paper and had it by me while I tried it on this quilt.

Videos online . Find a site with a quilter who explains it so you can comprehend... Then watch over and over! Then practice wherever you can . My patio door was easy to quickly practice on several times, erase, and do again when I walked by it! Be brave !

"I want to be like you!" Great job, twin sister, albeit not My twin sister!

Really...I really want to get them figured out.

I think your feathers are wonderful! And the rest of your quilting is gorgeous, too!

Very nice. I think you've got it! I am thoroughly convinced that determination and practice, practice, practice is the key to successful free motion quilting.
