birgitquilts Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hi, As my children have been staying with my MIL since last Thursday, for the first time in my life as a longarm quilter I had the chance to find out how much I can get done when I can dedicate full days to quilting! Luckily, I had a top from a customer who gave me permission "to go wild" on her top (most other customers are not so courageous over here...) - and I did (see pics below). Also, I managed to finally update my webshots albums. So you are welcome to take a look. Thanks for looking, Birgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenscratch Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 Birgit, I love those swirly feathers. How did you do that? I can't wait to take Myrna's class so I can learn some of this cool stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtreusch Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 Nice job. The swirly feathers are awesome. Debbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birgitquilts Posted August 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 Thank yo everybody. I sure had fun quilting those feathers. You find the instructions for doing these feathers in the book "Less Stress Feathers" by Jodi Robinson. They really are less stressful than formal feathers - I just love them - and this top was the perfect gound to show them off... Birgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GERRY Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 What can I say Birgit, that hasn't already been said, you do such beautiful work, I'm in aw. Your talant astounds me, when I saw you sampler quilt, I knew I was looking at a talented gal. I like every thing you do, to bad you don't live in north america, then we could take classes from you & learn how you do it. Great quilt girl.
