Whew! I'm bushed. I've been trying to catch up on things and have been sewing non-stop for the last few days. I had to get my Tropical Feathered Star done for my new condo as we are going there tomorrow to get it decorated. I was a little afraid to load it on Zoe, (my HQ!) as I wanted to do more than meandering. I finally traced some stencils on it and kind of sketched out my feathers. It made me nervous because I had to do feathers sideways, rather than from top to bottom like I normally do. So be gentle, you long-armers--it was my first attempt! I'm trying to challenge myself to do more than meander, loop-de-loop stuff on the big machine. The machine goes so fast, it's scary sometimes so I fall back into what I feel comfortable with doing. I have a lot more quilts to practice on now.

Wow!! Beatutiful feathered star, and really great projects from all those FQ's...it sounds like it was a fun project to do with friends..*S*
All of these quilts are just beautiful. You have been very very busy. Your quilting on the feathered star is wonderful.
The quilting looks good to me - I get hung up on doing pantographs myself because I make so many scrappy quilts. It seems that the quilts that call for more custom quilting sit on the shelf longer.
I love, love, love feathers and yours are so great!!! Good job. Glad to see that you are having fun with your quilter and branching out!
Cheers!
