The CC on the squares first? - Ani I'll answer, since I walk'd PJ thru this. I had her draw "off" with chalk the area she would NOT be quilting her feather's in. The 2 back-to-back CCw/swirls, where one's in one colored block, and one's in the other. Then you just start quilting on the diagonal your feather's using the seam of the blocks as your spine. Then when feather's are down, you come back and do your 9 patch and filler area with whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LibbyG Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Patty Jo, I like the design you used. So clever to add the CC's in the other space and then feather in the rest of the space. So many good ideas here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattyJo Posted April 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 I finally finished Verla's quilt. It came out pretty good. I was never able to overcome the dislexia on the curls, but that's ok.....Also never seemed to be able to go more than 3 blocks without a start and a stop. Saying all that, I loved the design and the method of looking at blocks differently than I had in the past. Working on the diagonal really added to the texture of the quilt. I tried to look on the back to see the design, but the back fabric is so busy that you really can't see it. I will use this idea again in the future and will use a plain back fabric so that you can see the beauty of the pattern. Ok, here are some pics of it finished. Thanks for looking.
