Hunters Star with Freemotion Feathers for my kids dad
My kids told me their dad wondered when I was going to make him a quilt since I've been making them for everyone else - we've been divorced for many years, but still are friends, so I thought why not. As I worked on this quilt I had lots of memories of years gone by, some good, some not that great, but it is part of our history, and I'm glad I made it for him.
My Daughter helped with the quilt sandwich, and after it was all pinned, I searched for a simple feather design I could FMQ so I didn't have to mark anything. Not perfect, but I'm still learning.
This quilt will be a surprise - the kids will just make his bed up with someday when they are visiting, and wait for him to spot it - I look forward to hearing his reaction!
