This quilt was so many firsts
 

Thanks to so many people on this board, I stepped out of my comfort zone and made this quilt. Some of the squares you will recognize as BOM squares. With lots of help between the BOM blocks, helping me figure out setting triangles, and those that spoke of free motion quilting and just going for it, I was able to finish this quilt. I owe each one of you a special thank you!

The firsts on this quilt-

Setting squares on point.
Making the setting triangles.
Trying to custom quilt each square.
Using a stencil for the feathers.
Using a ruler and marking a quilt.

I learned soo much with this quilt. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so wonderful with all the support you've offered.

The colors were all picked from the chick border. I didn't think they would go together either but they seem to play pretty nice with the border pulling it all together! And thanks for not pointing out that there is a goof in one block. :)
