My favorite feathers to make are hooked feathers. I have a book titled "Hooked on Feathers" that helped me a lot as well. I also like to throw in a few swirls from time to time. My feathers aren't as "perfect" looking, but I like them.

Lately I've been planning and experimenting with feathers for my large quilt project. I've never been able to suit myself with FMQ; I get disgusted and give up! Your words and pictures of your feathers today inspired and encouraged me to try really hard today. I did make a little progress that I'll show later. I can only dream that I'll ever be able to do feathers as beautifully as yours, but I intend to keep ruining some quilt tops trying to do the best I can! Thanks so much for all your help and encouragement! ---"Love"---"Love"https://www.blogger.com/profile/14253789635330034057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-38572096427709409342016-07-16T19:02:36.110-06:002016-07-16T19:02:36.110-06:00I think I'll go practice feathers now :) Your...I think I'll go practice feathers now :) Yours look wonderful.
