quilted fleece shawl
 
3 Attachment(s)
It isn't cut out yet, it gets cut around the feather border on the outside and around the neck. I was playing with having the feathers go under and on top of each other seeing if I could get dimension. There was left over fleece so I did a scarf. Winter is coming and it gave me more practice on the over and under of the feathers. It will be cut off right outside those straight lines. This is more practice from lessons from the Craftsy.com class, Design It Quilt It.

I started at the bottom back and just designed as I went. I am on a longarm. I don't know if I would want to do fleece on a domestic machine. I didn't get to see what I had until I took it off the machine. That was fun.

Wow. Just Wow. Hope you made this for yourself--if not, Christmas is coming, and I could use an incredibly beautiful shawl!

How lovely. Is it just one layer of fleece? I took that very same class and enjoyed it very much. She is a good teacher. Lots of good practice too! And a good idea. Is it a rectangle or a triangle? I just love it and your quilting is beautiful.

very nice quilting!!!!

debcavan 10-08-2012 07:57 AM

It is two layers of fleece. The shape is an oval with an opening for the front and neck.

I think you can safely stop calling it "practice". I do believe you have arrived! Great job.

That is beautiful...great work btw. I have a question. Which classes at Craftsy site would be benifical for me as a new longarm quilter?

Tartan 10-08-2012 09:05 AM

​Beautiful!

suebee 10-08-2012 09:06 AM

Awesome job Deb!!! it is really beautiful :)

debcavan 10-08-2012 09:16 AM

This class is done on a domestic machine by the teacher. None so far are geared totally towards longarmers. But it depends on what you want to learn. They are more geared to teaching the quilting patterns combining them and applying them. Feathers are Feathers, whether I do them on my domestic machine or with my longarm. I skipped the first two sections of Design It Quilt It that were on putting your sandwich together and tension. That didn't apply to the longarm.

Gorgeous quilting! Beautiful shawl!!

azwendyg 10-08-2012 01:48 PM

Deb, Your feathers are looking FABULOUS!

I love the look of the quilting on fleece; definitely worth a try on my domestic machine to see how it does. I'm wondering if some water soluble stabilizer might help me to keep it from stretching too much...

AuntieD 10-08-2012 03:00 PM

Truly a beautiful work!

hperttula123 10-08-2012 03:53 PM

The beautiful quilting on here amazes me. I wish I could afford a longarm but it is just not in my budget. Wonderful job.

stitcherlady 10-08-2012 05:51 PM

Your shawl is gorgeous. Would love to see it after it is cut out and see what it looks like in use.
