December's
bonus free motion quilting at SewCalGal was given by Teri Lucus. It was on
using a software program Kaleidoscope
Kreator 3 Software and its feathered
package. It looks like it would be fun to use. Teri/SewCalGal provided a pdf to
print out to do the challenge, but I don’t have the extra ink. So I printed out
the outline drawing and then enlarged the print. I was going to use it to do my
piece. But then I decided to go back and read the tutorial again. In the very
last part it has handout with instructions to create feathers I used this and
folded my piece of paper for a snowflake. Then I drew my feather on one sixth
of the snowflake.
Then I took my fabric and folded it into quarters
and pressed it. Next, I took and traced the section on my fabric six times
giving me a beautiful spiral of feathers. Not exactly sure it is a kaleidoscope
of feathers. Then layered and quilted my piece.
This
is the front with some of
the
tracing showing.
Back of my piece.
Thank you SewCalGal and Teri.
I have had a blast with this tutorial.

Your snowflake is beautiful and I love the border quilting!!! It really frames the snowflake well!!!!
Your piece is gorgeous Tina! I love how you made your feather snowflake, and your quilting is wonderful.
This is beautiful, I love how you created the six sections, gives me a method to try in designing a wholecloth quilt!
That is lovely, both in design and execution.
Lovely Tina - Well done!
