Quilting on my “out of the ordinary” quilt is done! The quilt is leaving me to go to the editor first thing in the morning.
It was SO fun quilting this project. Honestly, I am quite in love with back!!!
The feathers you see are all quilted free-handed on my home machine without any prior marking. That’s why they all look slightly different from each other:
This project is part of an article I am writing for Quilter’s World‘s February 2010 issue. The article is not quite like the ones I have done in the past, but I hope you would find it enjoyable once it is officially in print. And I definitely look forward to your feedback then.
It will be another full week for me. So, it’s back to work I go. I hope you have a super productive week! Ciao.
The quilting is something to be in love with. It is beautiful!
Wow, the quilting adds so much to it!
Oh, this is marvelous! You quilted those free hand on the machine??? WOW! I love the feathers in the design. You never cease to amaze me, Wendy.
XO,
Sheila :-)
The quilting is stunning. I still can’t believe you can do that on your home machine!
I love that backing fabric. Absolutely yummy colour!
Your quilting is beautiful! Looking forward to reading the article!
Love the quilt. I am so out of it lately, haven’t been on blogs and I feel lost. I saw two of your quilts in two different magazines this weekend. I will be looking forward to your article in the Feb magazine.
I must practice drawing the type of feathers you have all flowing together. Do you have a special way you do it. I know it’s the feather and outline of it but then how do you flow into the next one?
Your quilting is lovely as usual! I can’t wait to see the finished quilt and read the article.
I KNEW IT! It’ll not be only geometrical patterns! I love this look!!! :) THUMBS UP!
This is so fabulous Wendy – I love the design in the top photo, in the blue and white block, and of course the feathers! Can’t wait to read the article!
The free stitches made the quilt come “alive”!
Wendy…FABULOUS! You and your work!
Ciao Monica

I can see why you are in love with the back of the quilt!! It is all amazing!! Very inspirational!
I don’t have enough words for this! WOW!!! This is absolutely gorgeous, I love the clean lined solid(ish) blocks with the beautiful feathery quilting. So so pretty!
I can’t over how beautiful this is. I adore feathers and I am amazed at all of your quilts. Silly question: Do you get to keep any of the ones you make for the magazines?
The feather quilting is just beautiful!
