Taking Some Time

I'm not rushing the finish on this piece. It's fun to quilt and requires a lot of self-talk to get through where the feathers need to be placed, the ruler work needs to happen, and thread changes throughout.  Here's some of the quilting detail...

Quilting Detail
Notice the selvedge ribbon in the upper corner. I'm using this to give parameters for the arcs and feather placement. 

Worked on a few Town and Country blocks...

The commission piece mentioned in previous posts were for a neighbors friend who comes up with her on occasion. She looked at the Town and Country top on the design wall and immediately saw the electrician block. Her (deceased) husband was an electrician and asked if I would make her a larger version of the block. 
Look Familiar?
The wind is howling out there today and I have a few afternoon appointments. I'll work on Paulette's top for a while until the lights start blinking, and some more T&C's later today upon my return home.
