(I was going to get one for my birthday, but this excuse came along first!)
And at last I can see, what a difference its makes!
I am much better at sewing over previous stitches now (a must with feathers) .
Another thing I have tried today which worked, is altering my speed dial to reduce the speed, my foot control is naff and I kept going too fast making my stitches go tiny!
I just have one last border to do now with feathers, and then fill in around them all with scrolls.
Just one problem, I've nearly run out of red thread, I sent for more, but I must have highlighted the wrong box as I received the wrong colour this morning!
Not to worry thou, I'm itching big time to start a new quilt, its going to be a daffodil one that I'm designing myself.
The only reason I haven't started yet, is that I'm trying to be good and finish my quilts first and not start any more..... Its really difficult thou! Scratch Scratch
Happy Quilting!

I was wondering how you quilted. I see you use a Bernina not a quilting machine. Beautiful feathers. Do you free hand or stencil?
I just took my Bernina out of hiding to see if my freemotion quilting is better on it, or my Pfaff. I have to say I like the Bernina and it's open toe foot much better too. I hope my feathers will turn out as nice as yours! Love that quilt.
