This has been the BEST for me to learn feathers!!!

Wow beautiful. Thank you for sharing dear.

Thank you so much for your willingness to share your skills and mastery of FMQ! I really appreciate watching your videos over and over. In a period of about 3 years, I have developed the ability to do many of the quilting motifs that you have shown as well as feathers, and my personal favorites are elongated swirls and paisley feathers! Thank you again for the tips and the diagrams and the patience that you have shown along with the encouragement. I will try to remember instead of using the term mistake, I will remember it's a "custom design or feather"! Blessings to you and Happy New Year!!!

Hi Angela, I am just now feeling brave enough to actually quilt my panel. In one of your videos, you used a clear plastic of sorts to audition your designs. I could not find the video that I saw it on. can you tell me what that product is and where I can purchase it?.

Thank you so much Angela! You are always so happy and encouraging!! Appreciate so much that you keep showing the domestic sewing machine as more and more people are able to invest in long arms! You keep us all encouraged to keep trying. Thank you for all your hard work and Bless you for all the talent you share!!💕💕🥰🥰

Angela, do you REALLY long arm THAT fast or is your video sped up???

[ellenpalmer]

This video made me v-e-r-r-r-y happy…..why??….because you used the longarm for a long piece of time. Even though I understand you want to help “new quilters” on domestic machines, it is nice not to be forgotten. :-)

Hi Angela, I’m finding it very challenging to go back and watch these videos in order. They don’t seem to be labeled clearly or if they were, the “Week 1; Week 2” etc is cut off the title. Just as challenging was getting to the pdf downloads bc they’re not listed as a group on your website, not under any menus I cd find, not listed under the matching video on your site, and there is no search box. I literally had to do a search on YouTube for the “Fabulous Feathers play list, open many videos inside, look and see if it was the one I needed; then open the dialogue box, find the link for info; (if it was there) go back to your site; download. (If I had the correct video! If not, start all over again.) Then go back to YouTube and start the whole process all over for the next one. There must be a better way. Will you please think about how to label these more obviously in the future?
Maybe it’s bc I’m on a phone, but it’s a pretty good sized one; but I just can’t tell which video it is without opening each one.
Thank you very much and I know it’s a lot of work making these. But I thought I should tell you bc maybe since you are the creator, you haven’t had a need to rifle through to find a specific video or document and so are unaware of this issue. Thx again. 💖

A question for you please. As a beginner free quilter, what speed would you recommend me using? I have a variable speed control on my Brother and have tried the lower end as well as the middle speed. It’s daunting…. Thanks.
