When I was at A Quilters Gathering at the beginning of the month I took a class with Sue Nickels on drawing fabulous feathers. I decided to put to use what we learned and make a mini whole cloth quilt using feathers.
I'm still in the middle of quilting around the feathers, as you can see. I'm hoping it will help make them pop even more. I used a Kona grey, but I'm not sure which one and Superior Threads silver metalic thread.
Here's a picture of the sketched design next to the quilted one. I sketched it out using tracing paper first before copying it onto the fabric and quilting it.
Here's a close up of one of the quarter sections.
I needed to break up the work I was doing on the Storm at Sea and this was the perfect, quick project to do so.
