An Expert Machine Quilter’ Blog
Seems recently I keep running across beautiful blogs of machine quilting experts who specialize in feathers. Feathers appear simple and elegant. Most things that look simple to do are in fact challenging. Making complicated things appear easy is what the pros do.
Sally Bramald‘s blog has a beautiful header which immediately draws you into her site, Feather on a Wire. Notice, though that the smaller purple lettering on a scarlet background does not show well on monitor screens. The same for blue on green, as in the feather spine. (watch for an upcoming post on effective use of colors for monitors) It’s a small but important detail for the viewer’s interest in this site.
Sally’s archive of posts is grouped by month and year. If you browse around past posts you may find some of the patterns and drawings she shares.

Sally excels in making and quilting whole cloth quilts.
She graciously gives permission for bloggers to link to her site and/or to a link on her site, and asks to be given appropriate credit for the content.
Here are photos of two of Sally’s prize winning quilts .
Sally gives visual tutorials (and another) on her Bump and Bounce method (and another) for machine quilting feathers.
