A customer brought this vintage Lone Star quilt top to me to custom quilt for her. Her grandmother had pieced it back in the 1930s, but had never quilted it. The customer hand-quilted the star, but wanted me to quilt the white background area since she didn't feel up to doing it due to shoulder pain. So I was happy to oblige. I decided to fill the entire background area with feathers. I like how the feathers in the triangular area make a heart motif as well. I think it turned out really nice, she has a nice family heirloom now.
