Feathered Mug Mat

This is a 5” x 5” mug mat. My daughter wanted a mug mat, so I combined the need with the challenge. (Project QUILTING – Tuned In To Texture

P1040646

When I think of my daughter I think of her love for her chickens. When I think of chickens and texture I think of their feathers.  I like the way they layered without being perfect and I liked when the wind blows the feathers the underside is a different texture.  I had some fabric left over from the quilt I made for her wedding so I used that. Made half square triangles with a light fabric and the darker blues, then folded them to create the triangles that I then layered together. 

I learned I am not a photographer and it is really hard to capture texture in a picture.
