This is really beautiful. Your feathers are terrific. That's one motif I struggle with. I guess I need to do more doodling.

Great job! Thanks for some ideas too! As someone who has recently tackled FMQ it's always nice to see other "patterns" that can be used!

You are an inspiration, and have given me new ideas to dance around in my head. Thank you.

Thank you so much for posting your pictures! I'm especially inspired by the letters surrounded by stippling and will use that idea for personalizing baby quilts in the future.

I like your reasoning that quilting becomes easier when divided into sections making zig zag paths. I am trying to picture the paths before the quilting is added. Can you show a paper drawing of your zig zag paths please?

It's done! And, it's easier than the way I did it! Here is the tutorial for the FMQ Sampler frame:
