Progress being made

I am pretty happy with how the border in the 30's quilt kit is going.  I had to stop because I got the fabric wet to remove the water soluble ink mark and then the thread broke.  After removing some stitches, I figured it was a good spot for a break!  I feel so motivated to get more done this evening too!

Below is a closer look.  I think I am getting better and better at feathers!  I think if I were to do this design again, I would work harder to keep the scale of the feathers the same in the heart area as in the rest, but I can't complain!


I also was able to pin the Tiny Turning 20 quilt this week. 


These two quilts are probably going to be my last finishes for the year.  I am hoping to have a busy Christmas break and am especially hoping I will be able to apply for a doctoral program soon.  Still waiting on some information from a person in the department.

    Your feathers look great! Did you use a stencil? Are they free-form? Did you do the spine first? I love feathers. Your's look better than mine!

    BEAUTIFUL quilting!! I find my feathers get smaller in smaller spaces ... maybe that is just how they have to be :)
