Scrappy for DC
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is a project from Scrap Happy in the Quilters of America club that I recently finished. I am enjoying the group so much and making lots of quilts. Finally put it on the frame to practice making large feathers instead of just meandering. Thanks for looking.

How lovely! Such a simple pattern but packs a big punch with your color choices and quilting.

The quilt looks great and the feathers bring out the pattern.

I used copper thread on the front and brown on the back and happily the threads blended beautifully. The thread is Magna Glide Trilobal Poly. It is my most favorite brand and I buy the prefilled magnetic bobbins to match.

Pretty scrappy, love the feathers.

That is a very pretty little quilt you have there. What a gentle on the eye use of scraps :) i have so many and recently purchased a book on making scrap quilts. It stated you just reach in your bag of pieces and use them don'tworry about color. HAH. all their quilts were color coordinated which is why they worked. Like yours. It works very well. Great quilting.

Oh that is just lovely what a precious quilt. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in trying new and exciting things, the simple 9 patch is just so perfect, it just makes you want to wrap the quilt right around you.

Thanks for sharing your finish!

quiltinggirl 07-21-2012 06:52 PM

I really like this! It has a soft and homey look to it. Great job!

Sorry... you'll have to wrestle me for it! LOL! I love 9-Patches anyway & this one is fabulous! I love the warm, country colors & your feathers are fabulous! This is just beautiful! Great job!

What a fine way to practice, and it looks as if you didn't need the practice but are already more than competent.
