I would love to see the eagle quilt. I'll bet that is a work of art. The colors she chose for the star are so vibrant. Really gorgeous quilt.

So it was a little challenging getting the blocks quilted. Of course I had to quilt them one half at a time. I used very large feathered wreaths in the large blocks and the triangles. The borders were different sizes, the sides were 8 inches and the ends were 4 inches so I did a different feather design on the ends and sides. It turned out pretty well I think. I have only been working on the long arm since September so please forgive the bad parts.
