...what if...?
This is a question that Jude Hill from Spirit Cloth never stops asking.
And this time, that question led her to create this...
...the Magic Feather Project is a collaborative effort
open to anyone willing to stitch one simple feather.
All the feathers will then gather at Jude's place, a flock of at least one thousand,
where they will be joined together into larger cloths...
for charitable uses...
for the greater good of children.
Feathers are already flying 'round the world!
The gathering is well underway and can be seen over here...
...all the info about how to participate, including a short video tutorial, is here.
There is no end to the possibilities of feather inspiration...

We need only to open our eyes.
Many hands are needed and all are welcome to join...
