The Golden Threads paper works well, you just have to remove it after quilting and I'd rather not have to! I am going to try the Ultimate Pounce Pad. Feathers can be done without any marking, but it comes with practice and the smaller they are, the easier to me(and I still need lots of practice to perfect).

I started quilting feathers when I was on my regular machine. But now that I am on a long arm, I just make bigger feathers like 8" prongs. I love to quilt fleece throws with outrageous feathers. But I did feathers, feathers and more feathers on my regular machine.

there are many stencils designed especially for FMQ, including feathers. check the catalog on www.quiltingstencils.com There are also mini wholecloth preprinted pieces available as well as stencils for the smaller pieces. These are good for practice.
