Delectable Mountain Quilt

Last week I worked on this gorgeous quilt that was pieced by Eileen using the Delectable Mountain pattern by Eleanor Burns.  See a tutorial here.

Here is a picture of the quilt before it was quilted……

I was not familiar with this pattern, but I fell in love with this design!!!  And as soon as I saw it, I thought that feathers would look amazing on this quilt!!

In the border, I used Jamie Wallen’s Curling Amish Feather.

I had sketched out a drawing that I was pretty happy with, so I decided to stick with that the entire way and just keep quilting feathers…….and…….. more feathers!!!!  This second row of feathers is a more traditional feather.

 

Next up was the middle section which I tried to do a little differently than the rest.

And finally, the entire quilt is finished!!!!  Feathers, Feathers, Everywhere!!!!

This quilt was quilted using Superior Threads So Fine #50 and used Quilter’s Dream Wool Batting.  This batting tends to make the quilting pop!!!

Happy Quilting!!!!
