Friday Flaunt - Feathers
Yesterday I bought a new cutting tool to go with my other lino cutters. Of course I had to try it out immediately. There was a feather sitting on my desk (doesn't everyone have a feather sitting on their desk?). It sat there very still and posed for it's portrait to be done. The new cutter is brilliant - it makes a deep,very narrow cut very easily.
Here is the little quilt I've made with the prints. I used a pearly silver fabric paint and gold fabric paint. I think it has worked out well for a project that just grew as I went along.
Once again, my Friday Flaunt doesn't have its binding on. That's a job for this evening after dinner while I watch the cricket.

This is beautiful Sally! I love it. The feather stamp would make a nice postcard too. Care for a postcard swap? ;-)
Merry Christmas!
I am again jealous of your creativity. the feather quilt looks great.
Great lino block & lovely print Sally! The metallics work well on the dark background.
