Winter wall hanging, just in time for Spring...
 
1 Attachment(s)
I started this project a while ago, and had to shelve it for a bit in order to get other projects done. Anyway, it's finished and I love it. I call this "Twisted Chicken", and it measures 46 x 46", made with the large Twister tool. Fmq'd on my Janome, I practiced my feathers.

Thanks for looking, and have a beautiful day!

Very pretty! Your feathers are wonderful!

Great quilting, adds to much to the wall hanging. Hope you are enjoying warm weather as we are having more snow here in central southern MN. Kind of like being in the Twilight Zone.

It will be all ready for this coming winter!! Black background shows off your beautiful feathers! Lovely wall hanging!

Your quilting really makes this quilt pop! Love it!...but why do you refer to it as a winter quilt? Seems like a great year-round wallhanging to me!

nicely done

I love the way your feathers branch off instead of being a single wavy line of feathers.

Tapraol 04-16-2014 02:39 PM

Love it! The placing of the colors is terrific, as is the quilting!

I think that is stunning, love the colors and fabrics you chose, and your feathers are perfect! Just love the way they give the quilt movement.

Great job. Wish I could do feathers like that.

Great name for your quilt. It is over the top......

Cinjossar 04-17-2014 06:09 AM

Considering that I have over a foot of new snow on my deck right now, I would say that winter feels like it is still here. Your feathers are awesome! That is a skill that I can't seem to master. They really enhance your quilt and make it more beautiful than it already was.

JoanneS 04-17-2014 07:15 AM

Very nice feather practice on a well-balanced twister. I love black, white and red quilts!

fayeberry 04-17-2014 07:28 AM

Oh nice, I like it. I often finish quilts in the wrong season. But they are nice when the time comes.

Mariposa 04-17-2014 07:38 AM

Thank you everyone, for such nice compliments! Whenever I quilt with white thread, I always feel like I'm flying on a trapeze with no net, haha.

I love love love it. It's so different . It's not often a quilt of block will reach out and grab me, but yours did. Where did you get the pattern? Thank you for sharing it.
