Love the feather/fan shape - they are all awesome. I can't wait to see it all together. Love Chris

Beautiful squares. The feather fan is one of my favorites. Is that a ice blue or icy light purple thread color on the white? I love it.

Carolyn, the squares are beautiful!!! I can hardly wait to see how you finish them off.

So beautiful - it is going to be stunning once you have them all together!

Lovely Carolyn, always a pleasure to see what project you are or have been working on.

Lotsa Love

Beautiful job, Carolyn...I love feather quilting...what size is the design...8x8? Can't wait to see how you put these together...Looks like you will use quilt as you go method to sew the blocks together or ???

OH Carolyn this is going to be breath taking when put all together! WOW! ~hugs~

Looks amazing Carolyn

The close up photo is just beautiful!! What a perfect stitchout!


You first stitch two blocks together, just the top fabric together. Press seams.

Lay the blocks face down. Over lap the batting. Draw a line on the bat above the seam you stitched. The cut the bat, both layers at the same time. The bats should be butting up against each other and lay flat. Hand baste the edges together.

Then, (this is the hard part in my opinion) over lap the fabric on the back of the block by folding one side of the fabric under so you don't have a raw edge showing. Make the fold so that it is just above the seam that you have when you stitched the tops together. Hand stitch the the folded fabric over the top of the fabric with the raw edge to to finish the back side.

You basically do this over and over adding one block to another until you finish your rows. Then you put the rows together.

I see that you have a lot of extra fabric on the borders. I'd trim it down to about two inches to make it more manageable.

It wll be gorgeous when done! I can hardly wait for photos.

Carolyn, Beauty at it's best, that what these are. I do love them, they look so elegant and will be a masterpiece when you are finished/Lillian

going to look just beautiful. Pennyhal has explained how to fit them together very well. Will await the result with anticipation!

These are beautiful blocks and I can't wait to see how you finish this project up.

Gorgeous Carolyn! I look forward to seeing the photos of the completed quilt!
