I am in shock! I entered this McCommas in the BHQG Quilt show this last weekend in the non-judged category and it received the Viewer's Choice 2nd Place Ribbon. I am so excited!! Thank you ALL for your inspiration!

After a year of being very undecisive about how to quilt it and thinking maybe I should just take it to someone else to quilt (of which my hubby totally disagreed and insisted that I could just do it) I finally did it. I decided (after asking many from here and elsewhere) that it needed feathers and a year ago they scared me to death... well up until a week ago they still did but I really wanted it to be done and there was no time like the present. So.....
It is my first TOTALLY freehand feathers (no gizmo's, no rulers, no templates, no pantos . I call it "Feathers and Scribbles".
This is a Karen Stone Pattern, and I love it.
Now onto the 500 inches of binding.....
