    Yeah gramadona...there is plenty of time!

    I know...all about the large group wanting one of each and I thought about that...we'll see...I'm thinking that I will take put the cats outside and line them all up on the floor in the den, then its enny, meeny, miney, moe..... :lol: Or it might be really interesting if I leave the cats inside to help me :roll: I'll get it figured out...you will all get fabulous blocks...how could you not?? They are ALL fabulous!

    Ok, so I was thinking about making a strip of eggs, but the only problem is that when I try to make the eggs funky.... they kinda look like easter eggs :cry: Would that be ok or should I find something else.

    Heeeheeee....they would kinda look like Easter eggs I guess. What if you make cut a little bit of the top off kind of jagged (like it cracked off) and put a strip of something else between so that it looks like a funky chicken being born??? Maybe the chick would be more funky than the actual egg shell?....just a thought...

    Easter eggs are still chickens in my book. Funky eggs like tie-dye or zigzag or spotted or whatever could be a fun addition.

    I'm calling uncle and will finish with 3 sets. No "fresh eggs" from me. Sorry guys. There are too many projects waiting in the wings (pun intended) and I really want to do the next Boomerang swap too. Before that starts I must get these other things done. So I'll finish up my 3 sets of chickens and call it good.
