Dear Friends, I hope you are doing well. Life has been sort of a blur for me in the last few days as I worked to meet a few non-negotiable deadlines! I had heard from some of you that you were not able to leave comments on my Cottage Chic Christmas quilt. I am sorry about that. I am not quite what was wrong. I am guessing whatever it was, it was temporary on WordPress’ end.
Here is a snapshot of one of the three quilts I had shipped out in the last week or so. You can see that it is quilted feather wreath, but with a lighthearted informal feel. My feather lobes don’t all look the same in size or style. They almost look like they are up to mischief or something – which is not totally outrageous in light them being quilt on my Monkey Business II quilt there! :)
You will see what I mean by comparing the previous photo with this next one. Since all the feathers are the same size, the feel is more uniform and more formal.
Moral of the story: Experiment with the sizes and styles of your feather lobes to achieve different looks.
Thanks for stopping by! I will see you again tomorrow, hopefully.
I think they look perfect!
Your feathers now matter what their shape or size are just gorgeous! I hope you have a wonderful week!
So beautiful and such a different look and feel. Working on the Sweet Sixteen puts me back at the “beginner” level, since I just got it set up a few days ago! Hope to get this “learning curve” under control soon so I can relax and come up with a look a titch closer to yours…LOL! Sometimes I wonder why I don’t stick with the “same old”!!!! Mucho hugs coming your way!!!!! D
Beautiful. I really like how you varied and used different styles. Great visual impact. Inspirational. I look forward to giving this a try. Thanks.

For some reason, the comment section is not showing up on your posts when I go directly to your blog. If I click on “comments” from the post that came to me via email, then I can see the comments and post.
I like it — it does look playful, perfect for the monkey quilt.
I love love love the first one. I think I can do that. At least I am going to try.
BTW retreat was fantastic. I also wish you could have been there.
I like this and what perfect feathers!! Just love it!
Beautiful Wendy.
I think you are very generous & helpful to all learning quilting.
Perfect work.
This article is a bit too advanced for me. So is there anything you would recommend for someone just starting out? I’m really curious about how this will affect things in the long term but it’s probably hard to tell with all the current changes we see happening. Great website and I’m really excited to see it become even better over time. I’ve been looking almost everywhere online for thisinfo!
