Freehand Feathers
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am really excited. I got my Innova with autopilot at the end of May and have been using the computer system for the large motifs and doing freehand driving for the small detail work.

However, I wanted to try and do some freehand for the large motifs without stencils or markings of any sort. A week ago I started practicing feathers, then loaded this quilt of mine. I find I always do better with a real project. This is the underside with the feathers I've done.
