Design Inspiration

Have you heard the saying, “Birds of a feather flock together”? While there’s comfort in the familiar, there’s also something extraordinary about spreading our wings and flying with birds of another feather. It’s in these moments of connection—across different perspectives, experiences & stories—that we find new inspiration, deeper understanding, and unexpected beauty.

That’s the heart behind Another Feather. This design is a celebration of contrast, creativity & the strength that comes when we fly together. With its bold, modern & bird-inspired motif, this quilt is a reminder that our differences are what make us truly stunning—both as individuals and as a community.

Whether you’re drawn to the pattern’s striking geometry, its playful potential for color exploration, or the deeper meaning it holds, Another Feather is more than just a quilt—it’s a statement piece and a reflection of the connections that enrich our lives.

Details & Techniques

The Another Feather quilt is a striking design with a bold, bird-inspired motif. Available in five sizes (baby, throw, twin, queen, and king), it’s versatile enough for a cozy crib quilt or a full bed centerpiece.

This pattern is ideal for advanced beginners looking to expand their skills. Another Feather features half-rectangle triangles (HRTs), clever piecing with templates, and a unique layout that can be customized in two ways: the standard version with orderly, symmetrical “birds,” or the mixed version with a scrappier, more spontaneous feel.

Designed for seven colors, this quilt offers endless possibilities for creating a cohesive palette or a playful mix. The pattern includes printable templates, and there are optional acrylic templates available for added ease and accuracy. If you’d like extra support along the way, an on-demand workshop is also available to guide you through each step of the process.

This quilt was pieced by Mandy Spurgin.

Fabrics

This version of the Another Feather quilt features a spruce green background that sets a calm, grounded tone. The soft pinks, blues, and greens of the “birds” create a gentle contrast against the rich backdrop, giving the design a serene feel. The result is a soothing, modern palette that balances depth and softness!
