From this book , it's just 39 inches square, but I am thrilled with the way it has turned out ! The feathers are from this DVD by Patsy Thompson, who's method I've found the easiest to master. I am so pleased with myself that I'll even show you the back as long as you promise not to laugh at my 'swirls' - more practice needed there me thinks :-)
Not perfect I know, but not too bad for a first attempt either (even though I says it as shouldn't !)
Moving on, some while ago I joined this Yahoo Group dedicated to making small quilts and recent I joined their first quilt swap . My partner Tricia (no blog) from Michigan said that her favourites were autumn colours and purple, this is what I made for her
Measuring 16" x 24" , finished block size 4", containing 47 different fabrics not counting the neutrals - I was gutted when I discovered I had duplicated one colour, but by then it was too late to do anything about it . This is the lovely little quilt I received in exchange which is Tricia's first swap quilt
...and look !! More feathers !
