    I say lets all do the Funky Chicken..
    :lol: :lol:
    Happy Birthday lavandula girl!!! Hope it was a special one and wishing you many many more!

    Thank you all for the comments on my block..:D


    Sandpat... I didn't think of doing it myself, just thought when I saw the clip art that Misty posted that she might want to do an embroidered one..
    I'd be more than happy to send it to you, only one problem. Embird won't convert to ART. Do you have something you can convert with? I always save in PES as that's what my machines use.. If you can, PM me your email and I'll send the file to you..I did it small so it'd fit into a 3x3 block

    Fabulous block!
    It's a Zebraken ... or Chickbra...depends on how you look at it. :lol:

    Misty... Do you have an embroidery machine? I digitized a cracked egg.... I'd be more than happy to send you the file if you have can stitch it out.. Here's what it looks like..
    Tuesy, I would love to have that file too. I won't use it on the swap, if i decide to join.

Anyway, I am proud of myself for having not purchased any fabric. I did get fusible web and tear-away stabilizer, so I think I will be able to get started on my blocks in the next week or so.
    Misty those are adorable.

    Lava....Happy belated birthday! Its probably a good thing that you didn't see me dancing in your honor :lol: Sounds like you had a great day!

    Tuesy..if you 'd like to do the little chicken yourself for the swap, thats ok too....I just think its too cute not to be included in the swap! I can convert the file. I'll send you a pm with my email addy..thanks!

    Bettia, we'd love to have you join! If you'd like to do the little egg, join and then let me know and I won't do it.

    Charismah...got you down! Yippee!

    Ladies, the Mods are making me set a sign up deadline..so I'm listing 15 March 2010. That would give someone 2 weeks to get their 6 blocks done before the mail date. Of course, if someone wants to join later and can still get them done...I'm sure we would welcome them also.

    Ok guys, I need your opinion. I'm learning how to applique and so far so good, but I was wondering if the first two(on the bottom) will do or should I scrap them and make two more.... I still have to put eyes on all of them and my third (the top) I still have to do everything else. Thanks for your opinions on this.
