    I have finally quilted my McCommas Beauty!

    After a year of being very undecisive about how to quilt it and thinking maybe I should just take it to someone else to quilt (of which my hubby totally disagreed and insisted that I could just do it) I finally did it. I decided (after asking many from here and elsewhere) that it needed feathers and a year ago they scared me to death... well up until a week ago they still did but I really wanted it to be done and there was no time like the present. So.....

    It is my first TOTALLY freehand feathers (no gizmo's, no rulers, no templates, no pantos . I call it "Feathers and Scribbles".
    This is a Karen Stone Pattern, and I love it.

    Now onto the 500 inches of binding.....

    It's beautiful. I can only imagine how long it took to piece it, then quilt it.
