Step 7 Shape & Sort Your Feathers

Before you can apply your feathers to this frame, you will need to shape them. A lot of store-bought feathers can vary in their quality, so you will also want to take the opportunity to toss or cut down feathers which are poor looking. Some ideas for shaping feathers are shown below on the packaging my feathers came in. You will also want to make two piles- one for feathers which turn to the right, and one for feathers which turn to the left. The feathers below, for example, all turn to the right. You should be able to tell by holding the feather curve side up by the tip. You need to do this for both the plumes and the goose feathers. It seems tedious, but it will save you a lot of time in the end.
