    I never thought of that. LOL love that chicken quilt too. Did you ask her? I'd like to know myself, or maybe she just did it on her own.

    sik1010 explained to me how to do it. First plan it all out on graph paper and just go for it! Filling in where needed with fabrics that relate to the subject you are making the quilt with. Like paw prints in my example.

    That's how I'm going to do the kitty quilt for my DH. I'll just make different star blocks and fill in where needed.
