    Default Feathered star take 2

    I made a Christmas FS using paper piecing. This was my first FS and I was intimidated. I liked the results, but did not enjoy removing all those tiny bits of paper.
    So. I purchased Marsha McCloskey’s pattern, Vintage Moments. Her pattern was probably written for an experienced FS creator. Not me! I found a tutorial online that walked me through the steps though....

    And, it was actually fairly simple to do! Thank you, Molly and Marsha!

    Oh wow, I love that!! You say it's fairly simple, but it looks super difficult to me.

    Very nice! I've not been brave enough to try a FS yet, but sure like the way they look.

    It was supposed to be 15 1/2”, but it squared up to 15 1/4”.....I am OK with that! Haha.
