Princess Feathers

Sorry.... as it is a little fuzzy
Well, I have finally finished the four blocks for the center of Kim's Princess Feathers pattern.   YEAH!!!!!  

I took a long hiatus from this pattern and it feels good to get back to it.  I used my "fancy stitiches" as my husband calls them to make the machine applique a little more interesting, combining it with hand applique also.

I have the borders and corners cut and have started preping them for the applique.  I plan to do a combination of machine and hand once again.  Feeling excited to get at least one border done as I truly love those birds!!will post agin once I have completed at least one border.

    Absolutely stunning! I love the extra texture the decorative stitches add, and your colors are fabulous.
    Have fun with the borders. I loved doing the birds. :)

    Judy, it is great to see your post. I had been wondering if the blog was still active. You are great to post your progress, as a post begets another post, etc. And you are moving to a finished quilt! Thanks

      No, they are just raw edged. with some fusible along the edges to help keep things in place until I stitched it on.
