    I would have sworm this was an older video.
    I sub at high school and last year I used to draw this quilting pattern during quiet times, which is a lot in high school. Just to get it in my mind. Maybe I started right after you did this video. I don't know. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

    Adria, I love your videos. I have followed you for several years. I had given your name to my friend who is just starting to free motion. The thing about your videos is anyone can learn from watching. My friend is deaf so your videos are perfect. The other thing I like about this video that has closed captioning is you point to what you are talking about. That (the pointing) is so helpful for a deaf person to get the idea when there is no captioning. Thank you.

    Thanks for teaching. I haven't started doing serious freemotion quilting yet. But I want to start. Even at 67yo I still love developing new skills. I started quilt making at 58yo. Feeling the draw of longarm quilting. Your videos are hypnotic and soothing. And I just love drawing along on paper following you.

    I have finally been able to create feathers like yours on my home sewing machine. After plenty of doodling on paper and FMQ practice, it happened all at once- I couldn’t believe it. Now as I watched this video I visualised each feather ahead of its formation. This is such a beautiful and therapeutic craft. Thanks for the video.

    Wow, just Wow. This is gorgeous. If I were to see this in person, it would take some careful studying to realize that this is not a computer generated E2E. You have such a calming flow and fluidity to your design. I really enjoyed watching you quilt. Thank you so much for sharing and taking time to point out a few areas to pay attention to while working on this design.

You said out perfectly, practice,practice,practice is the key to getting better at our craft. Thank you for all your videos. I learned to see feathers from watching you, and I'm grateful. Best wishes!

    Thank you so much for your encouraging, inspirational instruction. Though your background music is usually so soothing, listening to your tips and explanation is a tremendous help. I love your free flowing style, yet so elegant. I recognize many of the computerized designs are stunning, and intricate, but their repetitive preciseness at times can have the feel of a mattress cover. I much prefer your lovely style and so appreciate what I’ve learned by watching your videos. I can only dream of having the space or budget to ever have a longarm, but I’ve been able to apply what I’ve learned from you on my mid-arm sit down machine. I too look back on my early attempts and enjoy and feel proud seeing my steady improvement. Thank you again for sharing your gifted ness and talent.

    I quilt on a domestic machine and love doing feathers. I recently wanted to do an edge to edge feather design but had no idea how to even start. Your video answered sooooooooo many questions for me. I do smaller quilts and just know I'll be able to use this video as a guide and inspiration. I seem to quilt traditional feathers better but agree bump backs work best for this. I'm trying to learn to be more intuitive as I work across my designs and found myself anticipating your next moves pretty accurately! Thank you so much for yet another awesome video!

    So, I need a break from quilting my feather obsession! Thanks to you, Adria, I am ACTUALLY doing feather filling on my third quilt and I am thrilled with my progress, due to your wonderful & mesmerizing video. I am a visual learner and I don't know if I could have done this feather fill without watching your video a few times, practicing on paper at night then finally had the courage to give it a try. First a wall quilt - went as well as could be expected (but I was happy with the result). Then I attempted another and then another full quilt. I work on a mid-arm, Sweet sixteen, and so my hand moving the fabric is a different motion than a long arm. I am dedicated to practice, practice, practice just these feathers until I am no longer nervous with every stitch. I just wanted you to know that there is absolutely NO chance I would be doing feathers without you willing to share this video. And, that you showed your first feather quilt from 10 years ago was an inspiration also. Thank you so much for sharing!

    @Trixy8521 3 роки тому

    I love how you explain your moves. Knowing the why makes it easier to understand the how. You make it look effortless. I don't have a longarm, but I think I can still use the concept by chalking out my spine and dotting in the halfway parameters. Thanks for an excellent demonstration.

    Thank you for showing your first feathers - just goes to show what can be done with perseverance - and as for perfection, nope, you aren't a machine and that's what makes it special. I had a go as the guy setting up my machine yesterday said have a play. So I did so badly - I'd forgotten how to do feathers! And when I did have a go they just didn't work. This morning I put myself on a timer - and with grim determination the first time I did a feather it wasn't too bad - went downhill after that! LOL! Got too cocky for my own good! But it is fun.

  • @helens7016
    @helens7016 4 роки тому +1

    Love this great feather fill without the use of a pantograph! Thanks!
    It's nice to be able to hear your voice and the machine running without distracting music. I've been longarming for several years and find that many who are just learning prefer to listen to the machine's motor speed and watch the movement so they can learn how to use their own machines better.

  • @catemaclean9579
    @catemaclean9579 3 роки тому +1

    I watch this about a year ago. Did this on a practice quilt that I quilt doodle on. It turned out PERFECT. A year later and I still haven't done it on one of my quilts. You have so many edge to edge designs that are so simple once I see you do them but they look amazing. Thanks so much for sharing your talents.

    Your videos have taught me so much about feathers and really, quilting in general. I really loved this one; it's good to hear you explaining how you make your decisions and shape your feathers. I currently quilt on a domestic but my new Gammill is coming soon and I cannot WAIT. I honestly never thought of doing a feather fill all over an entire quilt,--it's so beautiful! Thanks for all of your videos; they are so helpful.

  • @janeahrens4233
    @janeahrens4233 4 роки тому +3

    This was an encouragement to me, I've been sewing one thing or another from doll clothes to my clothes my children's clothes and finally got into quilting about 20 years ago. Your feather tutorial is an inspiration to me, I started out on a hinterberg frame where it goes from about a 9 inch spaces down to about a six inch space on a king-size quilt. So my feathers look a little rough on some of my older quilts. Now I have a millennium from apqs much larger space not sure how big, but I need to keep doing the memory motions on paper and I keep putting that into the quilt I do. I don't quilt every day, I'm still a very busy grandma and I do other sewing besides quilt. I don't long arm for other people but I still enjoy what I do too.

    Wow, so wonderful and helpful to have you telling what you are doing and thinking as you do the feather fill. Also, so kind to show your first work to inspire us to keep trying and practicing. I have a small long arm on a little foot frame. Lots of manually moving the quilts. I have been quilting for just over two years now, and can see improvement. Mostly I do ruler work, but am gradually working in free motion...feathers are next. Thank you so much for this video♥️❤️
