Hi there, Amy! I posted that tutorial here: Feather Cutting Tutorial
I saw this on pinterest and I have been trying to find something like it as a quilt for my apartment and I cannot find something that I am equally obsessed with. Would it be crazy to ask if you could make this in a twin size? Please e-mail me, kati.ehrgott94@gmail.com.
You can make it in any size. AMH even gives the dimensions, etc. in the free pattern, which Meredith linked to: http://www.annamariahorner.com/Feather.Bed.Quilt.pdf
This is a seriously gorgeous quilt! Amazing. Thank you for sharing.
My sister sent me this as a hint. I will be making one soon.
I would love a tutorial! I’ve been called Heather Feather quite frequently, might as well have a pretty quilt to illustrate! ;-)
I’ve got the cutting tutorial right here: https://oliviajanehandcrafted.com/?page_id=4708

Can you tell me how many inches you stair stepped each strip in while sewing the strip sets?
Yes please post how you make your feathers,
Hi there, Debbie! You can find that tutorial right HERE.
