[ATTACH=CONFIG]561540[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]561541[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]561542[/ATTACH]Just a little playing around with the quilting to practice my edge to edge freehand. Always love feathers. This is done now. Put binding on last night. Yeah a UFO finish.

Congratulations on your UFO finish, QuilterMomma. Your practice quilting looks pretty darn good to me. 
Toot, Toot!

Oh, my gosh. I've located the only project I've ever totally hand pieced, a Winter/Christmas themed table runner.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]561538[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]561537[/ATTACH] It's 15 years old. (I won't mention that it's about an inch wider at one end. Must be my measuring tape, huh?) Anyway, I've got the backing although after inspection, I should have cut it considerably larger but maybe this can be my next UFO finish? Press the top, enlarge of the back somehow, sandwich and it'll be ready to go. I'll hand quilt it so it might not be done this year. We shall see. Now to see if there's any chance at all I've got something that will work on the back. And shoot, I don't have a binding either. One problem at a time.

Very nice feathers quiltermomma. Do you do both sides as you are quilting or do loops backwards and then travel up the center? Feathers are my favorite.

I go up one side and work back down the other. I am not a start and stop person. My goal was to watch my overlaps/backtracking since that is what I got counted down for at MQX-Midwest. Plus, I wanted to test myself on filling the space.
Thank you for the compliments. I have plenty of UFOs to finish yet to practice on. LOL
I did count my projects that I do know of (some may be hiding yet) and there are about 52 regular projects, 34 UFOs left, and unknown amount of bucket list and scrap quilts.
Back to work so I can get home to finish up some baby quilts.

I do not even want to count my projects and UFOs. I am having problems posting pictures right now but I am working away on things.
