With practice and growing skill with feathers, you will be able to quilt smaller and smaller spaces.  The blank spaces are for you to practice over and over to gain mastery.

This is Part 9 in my feather practice series.  If you would like to start at Handout #1, please click HERE.

Next lesson is fun and whimsical.   Stay tuned!  Regards, Carla

  1. I will be trying to pay your kindness forward when doing community quilts for others. Looking forward to improving my quilting with the lessons you have shared! I am amazed at the variety and beauty of your feathers.

    Now I better get to that practicing!

    • Good for you! Community quilts and programs that quilt for wounded veterens are wonderful! Hope you will share your beginning feathers and then later feathers as you master them!

  2. Hey Carla,
    I don’t have the words to thank you enough for sharing these feathers!!! Your instructions are soooooo clear and the illustrations are perfect! I’m saving the whole series and eagerly awaiting the next installment. Your work is truly beautiful and sooooo inspiring!!! Thank you again!

    • Hi Maggie, thank you for your lovely note! I plan to draw up the next one today and post it. I am also working on a future series about common quilting oops that trip up many machine quilters.
