Tracey Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I just wanted to toot my own horn...I gave feather meander a go 'cause I really love the way it looks. I have loaded a piece of muslin 120 x 96 and I'm gonna fill it with fun practice stuff. Here is my first attempt at the meander. Also a couple of other things. you girls are all light years ahead of me but I'll catch up eventually!!! I also put metallic thread on my machine for the fist time. EEEEKKKK I'm in love. I think I'll be up really late:):) LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaR Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Tracy I really like seeing the various designs you were stitching and came up with. I think you did a wonderful job.. love the various feather shapes you used, and the lge to small.. the 3 size feather fronds.. you are coming right along and I don't see a square topped feather among them. Borders are wonderful, too. RitaR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boni Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Now this is a phenomenon! When you post pictures of PPP and we see what can be done, doesn't it just make you want to fling on a muslin and try it yourself? Thanks for the inspiration and encouragement guys!

catsigler Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Very nice! Looks like a little more than feather meander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracey Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Sally Terry's hooked on feathers book is awesome. The little sashing design is in her Pathways to better quilting. Now I'm waiting for my Renae's amazing rays tool. I ordered and got two sets of arcs but dingledorf here didn't realize I needed a tool to use with them. DUH!!! Once again my impulsivness bites me in the butt. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltjunkie Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 You are a natural! Those are fabulous feathers. I love them they are big and fat and fluffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belquilt Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Those are great feathers. I think we all have our own "Signature" freemotion feathers and they look so natural.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Great job Tracey I can't tell if you marked them with a marker or is that veragated thread on the first picture? Jeanne You are doing great keep up the good work!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlette Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 WOW! Those look great! Now I'm not so sure I want to share mine! I did the same thing as far as the muslin piece. I just stood there and wondered, "Now what do I do? I finally got started but thought I'd never find the bottom!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
