skrat Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Yes Dory, I SID around all the card trick blocks, then freehanded the feathers, then decided it needed a little formality, so I put the formal feathers in the diamond shaped border. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrat Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Well, Shana, my feathers aren't nearly as gorgeous as yours, put someday I'll grow up to be just like you I hope. I'll just keep PPP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Shannon, it's simply divine!!!!!!!!Did you use a stencil for the swirley feathers in the white areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrat Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 No, Sheri, they are all freehand. Me and stencils aren't the best of friends....lol Still working on that relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Shannon, that looks great. I love those feathers, oh yeah!. And I like the way you lined those cards, gives more interest than just the SID. Great job.:cool: How did you snag a quilt with all that open space for quilting? This quilt really shows off your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrat Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Linda, Once in a while, your dreams do come true and in this one it did. Her husband dropped the quilt off in a bag and told me to call her to discuss the quilting. When I opened it up, it took my breath away. Then I had to come back down to earth to start deciding what to put on it. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
