I really like how that feather turned out. I quilted it after watching some Karen McTavish videos.
The loopy zigzag (right below the feather) is repeated in probably every block in this quilt.
This photo is a little more close up than the others, and you can see some less attractive quilting here too. That's ok... it's all part of the process. I learned a lot while quilting this quilt, my skills improved (you get better with every quilt you quilt, you know) and it was fun, too! I will probably do a sampler like this sometime again. The loopy zigzag (right below the feather) is repeated in probably every block in this quilt.
Echo quilting around a bird. It isn't perfect, but that's ok.
I am in love with this sort of fan quilting thing I did in the purple/pink strip above. I tried some loopy hearts up there too, should have done that one more than once.
I did a kind of carnation filler in the center square of this block.
Now I need to figure out what to do next. I will probably get going on some Farmer's Wife quilt blocks, and make the binding for this quilt. I have a baby quilt that I really ought to make soon as well. :) (My sister T is having her 2nd baby girl within the next month!)
p.s.... Don't forget to enter my giveaway for an Accuquilt Go, Baby! :)
Love it! I really love it! Like they say practice makes perfect... and you gotta practice on something.
