| feather quilting |
It is a "hard sell" to convince some quilters that (after lots of practice hours) it is possible to experience great joy and find the whole machine quilting process to be very relaxing.
But it's totally true for me!
I really enjoy taking a piece of fabric that I have painted, then quilt it, and then add more paint or beads or text, or whatever it calls out for. It's definitely a work in progress.I'm not sure if it should hang horizontally or vertically?
If you are interested in taking the class with me in December, you can find more details at the Triangle Sewing website.
Happy Quilting!

I wish I could take your class. Your quilting is absolutely lovely
Very nice...you could do another and have it hang the opposite direction Kathy
;)))
Instead of a hanging sleeve, put folded triangles in all four corners on the back. Then it can be hung which ever way suits your fancy. Wish I could take your class as I'm still intimidated by feathers.

I asked the owner of a local quilt shop if she would ever offer a FMQ class. She said yes and showed me a small quilt block that had been FMQ. It was more of a class making say...a potholder. I didn't want that. I will continue to look for a local class that simply teaches FMQ without having to create a project first.

Your feathers look fantastic! I can see where FMQ could suck you in! Such pretty project
Your quilting is so lovely! Your students will be blessed to have such a wonderful teacher!
Your stitching is especially lovely in the variegated thread!
Beautiful stitching. I really should give it a shot again on my machine.... I just get lazy and want a 'finish' and end up using the walking foot lately. Wish I was closer..... I'd take your class.
Beautiful painted fabric and yourquilting is exquisite! Oh my, wish I lived close by.
It's a beautiful sample Kathy. I started to enjoy quilting once I let go of expecting it to look really good. Once I let go of that expectation I could enjoy my progress.
