    Wow! I just found this beautiful chicken pattern ($8.50 each! pricey). What great inspiration:

    There are lots of free ones too!
    I'm busy collecting them. I will join once I have 2 that I'd be willing to share. :-)

    My best guess is that they will make me make a block for each of my 8 chickens. And maybe a few of the ones that are no longer with us.

    Lucky thing I have colorful, beautiful chickens!

    Hi Jami, welcome!

    You are going to love this swap. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

    Did you notice Pat P who has 30,000 chickens? My DH and I also have chickens. :-D

    Thanks everyone! After posting those links I saw the other Link and printed the pattern and started cutting...
    I don't have a lot of solids but this was a cute white muslin with embroidered ladybugs. I think I can only fit 4 on this FQ so I'll have to find another for the last 2.

    Is this funky enough? :-)
