On another thread, Fireworkslover mentioned the book "Hooked on Feathers" by Sally Terry, for doing freehand feathers. So I got the book, it arrived Friday, and - after a bit of practice with paper/pencil, & a scrap piece - I got out a runner I had only done STITD on and gave it the treatment!
Thank you Fireworkslover for book tip - I am so pleased with the results!
First is the runner as it was, then as it looks now - I reckon I can charge a bit more now!
