AusModBee - Jan

I was invited to join a Modern Australian Bee and oooh im so glad I did, I just need to be organised enough to stay on top of the monthly blocks!
Jan was the first month and we made AMH Feathers. These blocks look amazing but I must say I found them a pain to make and with major fabric wastage.

Dont the fabrics look fantastic!

I made a mistake with one and the pieces are slanted in the wrong direction, we were supposed to make 4 feathers but luckily I had enough fabric to make 5 so that there were 4 correct feathers.



A quilt of them will look stunning though

Gorgeous feathers! I love the look of them, but I really think there must be an easier, less wasteful way to make feathers. So pretty though...

They do waste a ton of fabric, hey! They look beautiful.

I've been admiring all the feathers since they first started popping up, but I soooo know I don't have the patience to make a whole quilt of them!
