And BTW I love your patterns and fabrics in those runners, particularly the "stained glass" effect one.

Well I did have a go on a few sandwiches first - you'll notice I didn't show you those! But it's a very 'forgiving' technique I think - try it! (And no I'm NOT related to Sally Terry in any way!

You are doing an awesome job and I am so jealous!!!!! No matter how much I practice my quilting looks horrible---I think I am missing the free motion gene.

It's wonderful! That new machine is being good to you isn't it? It scares me to try the feathers, but one of these days....

Mimi don't be scared! They're only feathers, worse they'll do is tickle you! LOL Seriously, anyone whose tried feathers the backtracking way and given up (like I did!) try this way - it's much easier. (I SHOULD be on commission, the sales job I'm doing for Sally Terry!) There are lots of ideas for variations in the book too - once I'm happy with the basics, I can't wait to give some of those a try!
