Mariner's Star - finished handquilting & binding
 

Seemed like many people liked my Mariner's Star wallhanging when I posted it a few weeks back when I finished piecing it. Well, I finished handquilting & binding it, and figured I'd share a picture of what it looks like finished. It's amazing to me how quilting totally changes the 'feel' of the quilt. I thoroughly enjoy the process of handquilting, and this is the first time I tried feathers. I'm kinda sad, in a way, because now I need to piece something else so I have a small project to take to the kids 'functions'. ;)

Hope you are all having a great day.

very nicely done!

The quilting just brings it to life! Beautiful!

Very pretty! Love the feathers too!

you did a fantastic job on it! it is beautiful love your color choices

Stunning love the feathers

It is beautiful. You did a wonderful job.

Nicely done. You might try a whole cloth quilt ....no piecing only quilting:)

Beautiful :)

Great job! Love it.

very nice. love the mariners star, my bucket list

That's very pretty!! I hope to have a mariner's star in my near future too! I at least want to try one! :-)

beautiful! I love handquilting too! After I finished my last quilt, it felt so strange not to have another project to work on. Now I have large one for home and working on two doll quilts I can take with me. Your wall hanging is very lovely!

So pretty, you did a wonderful job!

Gorgeous. Terrific job.

Ooooooohhh I love it! Beautiful everything, quilting, piecing and choice of colors. Love the chartreuse and purple. Hand quilting just tops the cake. Nothing like hand quilting.

Great job, I haven't tried hand quilting yet but after seeing yours, I think I will give it a go on my next hand pieced project.

Quite beautiful!! Hand quilting is fun and on a small project it goes so much faster!! Lovely colors, too.

Just gorgeous!
