Drunken Feathers

Drunken Feathers is the name of the pantograph I'm using to quilt this half square triangle BOM.

It took me a little time to get used to it and figure out how to space the rows evenly. It really didn't take too long. I practiced the pantograph without sewing just to get familiar with the pattern.
