    The feathers look nice on the borders. They are always a favorite quilting design. Congrats on attempting and mastering the technique.

    You did very well. As stated before, once it is all done it'll be fine. I love to do my own quilting, but getting the three layers of a quilt together is the part I don't like.

    I think you did a beautiful job on the feathering. I love it. You should be very proud of yourself. This is your first attempt and it cam out looking like a pro did the job. Well done.

    practice is how we all improve. when I learned to do the feather stitch, I did it backwards and even today when I do it, I try the regular way, and it looks a bit ametuerish. so... all in all, you are the only one you need to please, and that will come with lots of practice and patience. Good looking work!!

    You are doing a great job! I have yet to muster up the nerve to tackle something like that!

    Those feathers are terrific. I wish I had it in me to practice, practice, practice. I need patience, patience, patience! You do such beautiful work & are always trying to expand your quilting skills & learn new things. You are my inspiration.

    Oh, I think you are very brave and if they are your first feathers they look great. While I am very new to my long arm & still learning I posted a sign that says " Think Cursive " for some reason that helps my brain, Which videos did you watch?

    Your feathers look so good. I always have trouble keeping them consistent - it looks like yours are great.
