My Sally Terry "Hooked on Feathers" book arrived today and I'm
practicing making good feathers. I have to say I really like this
method. I would do sort of a bull-in-a-china-shop sort of feathers but
have never liked how they looked, which has usually been with lots of
obvious sew overs and doubled seams. I've never been brave enough to
include on in a quilt. But I can already tell that this is a good
technique. It's easy and the practice actually allows me to see
improvement already. I think this might really work for me. Thanks to
whoever it was who first posted about this book. I'm really happy with
it and can see some real potential to make my haphazard quilting
skills better.

I don't know who recommended it either, Sunny, but, as ever, it was just one
of the many happy things rctq has given us.
Something you may not have noticed yet is that once laundered, mostly
your oops will disappear. I'm enjoying Hooked on Feathers too. Polly

Aah Sunny. You must be the person who got "mine" from Amazon. Lol. They had
to cancel they said as they had double booked!

Sorry Estelle, but I didn't get mine from Amazon. I bought from one of
their lower priced (but not much) vendors. I bought a used copy that
actually has a nice little note written in the front. The book doesn't
show much wear, but the spine is already broken in, which doesn't
matter. I'm having it put on a spiral binding for easier use at the
machine.

I like the spiral binding idea! I'm guessing you can do that with any
paperback book?
