inspired by the feather quilt of ann maria horner and my basket of naturally dyed fabrics
it was my beautiful sister helen's idea to suspend them in the window
and let the warming lights of spring shine through
i was going to use them to make a table runner or pillow
but after seeing them in a new light they may end up adorning a summer skirt or tunic
yes summer
the warm weather has finally arrived in ontario
and the resuurectionfern porch had its official opening yesterday after work
:)

Just GORGEOUS !!! What a brilliant idea to hang them at the window !
And YAY for the porch season opening ! I miss you & being with you on the porch !

I thought the shafts of those feathers were small fallen branches!! A fun idea for twigs and kids!! Thanks Margie!! 8*)

I love it! That would be a cool thing pattern to use with felted sweaters of different colors.

they would make a cool pillow, all lined up like in the last photo. but of course they would also look great on a summery skirt!
