I would sew from the center feather out on both sides. The part at the bottom where they all come together isn't going to show so it doesn't matter what it looks like. Make sure your seam width is consistent and be careful as the sides of those feathers are probably on the bias. They will stretch with minimal handling so I would starch the heck out of them before handling too much.
