New project - whew!!


Well, since I don't have much $$ in this blue and white quilt top, I decided to go for it and try my hand at feathers. I won't get any good at doing them until I do them. Doing feathers around a circle is much easier to me than doing them straight (or slightly curved). The picture shows one of my better circular feathers and probably the worst feather below it. (click on the picture to enlarge) Hopefully, I will get better. This one is going to take 10-12 hours to quilt...whew! Elijah may get this quilt for his bed at school. It is 81 x 97, so I think it will cover his queen bed. His other quilts barely come to the edges of the mattress.
