There is a new article on QuiltingHub today for Feathered Star!
Feathered Star is just one of many designs requested by Inklingo quilters.
They recognize that printing the cutting lines, stitching lines, matching marks, and crosshairs on the fabric is the simplest and best way to make any design, no matter how complicated it might be with traditional methods.
Your precise feathers will look their best when you use Inklingo’s four unique pressing guides too.
If Lucy Boston had made a Feathered Star, I’m sure there would be fussy cutting!
There are TWO methods of fussy cutting with Inklingo, described in another article on QuiltingHub.
Thanks to Inklingo, the preparation and sewing are simpler and faster, so you can afford to spend a little extra time fussy cutting some of the shapes in your Feathered Stars too!
.
One of several innovations with Inklingo Feathered Star is that you can use standard-size blocks in the center to create your own unique Feathered Star variations!
This example uses Inklingo Star 9 inch in a 30 inch Feathered Star, but you can use any 4.5, 6 or 9 inch blocks for small, medium and large Feathered Star blocks!
You can even use the shapes in the FREE Diamond Triangle Square shape collection for the center of a 15 inch Feathered Star block!

This is one of my favorite Facebook images of the past week.
Facebook only shows my photos to about 20% of the quilters who have “liked” the Inklingo Facebook Page, so the best way to stay up to date is to subscribe to the blog (top of right sidebar).
If you are on Facebook, please post photos of your Inklingo and Quilted Diamonds blocks on my page and please “like” and “comment” and “share” my photos. When we interact, it makes it more likely that Facebook will show you my next photos too.
Now, please fly over to see the new article on QuiltingHub, sign into your free QuiltingHub account, and rate it!
Thank you for visiting both sites!

25 Signs YOU are an Inklingo Quilter
Text on the image says to sew on the diagonal lines. Didn’t you mean to say we shoule sew on the dotted or dashed lines?
Hi Bertrice, Yes, you would only sew on the dashed diagonal lines, not the solid lines. There are complete instructions in the Feathered Star Design Book and in the free Triangle Tips PDF. http://www.inklingo.com/galleries/inklingo-triangle-tips/32 If you have any other questions, please ask. Hugs, Linda
