I started quilting Mom's Mystery Quilt before I left for our trip. This is as far as I have gotten.
The center star is is quilted as well as the "ribbons." I've done some free hand feathers around the center ribbon. Here is a detail shot. (Click on the photos to see them larger.)
I'm really happy with the star and the ribbons. The feathers are okay. It's my first attempt at feathers. I got better as I went around but there are definitely some places I'm not happy with. I'm not ripping it out though. I won't be making any more progress on this until after my sewing room makeover is complete. I'm busy painting today. See yesterday's post for makeover news.

This is going to be one awesome quilt!
Lynn, it's really looking great! It's so amazing the depth quilting adds to the quilt. Hope the fixing up is going well today. I haven't had a UFO update in....forever!
Oh wow! You did such a great job! I am so impressed with those feathers. I bet you can't wait to get your sewing room back! It's going to look so different!
have a great weekend!
Oh Lynn, your quilting is beautiful.
Love the quilt and the quilting! The ribbon borders add so much to the quilt, too.
I didn't get my update to Susan soon enough but am slowly working my way thru my UFOs.
Happy 4th!
