Dear ArtsyOne,

Your member photo is so fascinating! The bright colors draw me to your posts every time. Can you tell us a little about the pattern and what size the quilt is?

You FMQ feathers are lovely! I am confised. Is this a quilt as you go quilt?. Or did you just quilt each block with batting and backing and then will sew together? I am courious as to if this a new method of quiltiung and putting blocks together.

I love your quilting. Your feathers are wonderful. I wish I could do that good.

That is just beautiful...I know that I've seen templates for the vines if you really feel that your free motion isn't good enough...but, it won't show as much and I think it will be just fine.

Thanks so very much for your compliments!

To answer some of the questions: this is a QAYG, the sashing will be 1/2" finished.
I used templates for the feather quilting, it's not free hand! I wish it were. I can do vines, leaves, stars, flowers but no feathers. I'm practicing on them but they don't look good yet. I have been quilting around the flowers in the blue and it looks good so I think I will leave it that way. I still have to quilt the outer borders of the blocks, maybe meandering.

You done a fantastic job on these. You should be able to do the feathers. Just have faith in yourself. Go for it girl.

Not too good? They look awesome. I'd say keep going. they ill be less pronounced on the print then on the white any ways. You have the hardest part behind you. Please post pictures when you are done.
