This little quilt jumped the queue! I thought I’d show how I mark for quilting feather borders. I’m very much out of practice.
First I mark the corners and center lines of the borders.
These are not quilting lines, but reference lines to mark the spines. Then I use my spine ruler (IDK what the official name is) to draw in the spines.
I use the same ruler when I actually quilt the spines.
After spines are quilted, I free hand the feathers. Don’t look too closely! I am REALLY out of practice.
But at least it is finally getting done. Have a great day!

Thanks! I’m better at drawing with my machine than a pencil. 😂
Thank you so much!
Katy, I adore the fabrics and quilting in this piece! It looks so fresh. Job well done. ❤️
looks good to me….took a class with sue nickels on how to draw feathers…it’s really easier than one might think…
