Tail Feathers is quilted (thanks to Mel) and back in my hands, now I am binding faster, faster, faster! so I can have the quilt ready for the photo shoot tomorrow.
So it sounds like I will be able to reveal the complete quilt - and send the patterns off to print this week...ahhh I can't wait, if you could only see my smile right now *big grin**
Here is part of the Shop Kit I have been working on for those stores interested in running Tail Feathers as a block of the month
I am sure I will be back soon with more photos but right now I'm back stitching binding and enjoying the final few stitches!
Till then,
Natalie X














Having just purchased the patterns I was also interested in how I might get a copy of the fabrics used to complete the quilt. I am in the US so won't have access to the quilt shops. I bought the honey buns but if I need other fabrics would like to get them before I start.
Wonderful design !

The anticipation is too much to bear! I can't wait to get my hands on a pattern. I've got a supply of Patisserie, but I noticed that you used one of the Blackbird Designs "sampler" fabrics for the bird bodies. What line is that fabric from?
