    I am changing the size of my blocks from 12" to 12x24". I found a great pattern, but it's twice as tall!!

    I did not have a pattern, I just drew the hen. I am doing three sets and I drew each one of them, the hen, a rooster and a chick. Thank you for the nice comments. I can't wait till we get to exchange them.

    Yea ladies! Sorry I haven't been around....modem died...but whew..I'm back (hopefully)...But, the good news is that since I had more time...I drew out my chicken blocks to get started. One of them is a hen sitting on a nest of Easter looking eggs and I plan to embroider Fresh Eggs over her head.

    Sazu! That fabric is sooo cute! I like the wood grain idea, it would be really cute. I like the fabric for a border too...hmmm...now my brain is whirring..!

    Joykey...welcome! I'll add you to the list!

    jljack..I'll change your block size too.

    Countrygirl...your hen is darling! I love the fabric!

    The blocks are starting to come in...and they are SOOO CUTE!!
    Darlene...I got your cuties today! (can you tell me your screen name please?)

    Hi, Sandpat - Here's my update:
    One 6" set done and picture posted last weekend. I finished one set of 9" chicken blocks this weekend (will try to post picture at some point). I have two sets of 12" block pieces all traced out, ready to fuse and stitch. I have plenty more ideas but time (and LIFE) may limit my abilities :lol: :roll: :lol: I knew these funky chickens would be so much fun! Could you please update the activity page for my contribution to read:
    1 set 6" blocks
    1 set 9" blocks
    2 sets 12" blocks (fingers crossed :-) )
    Thanks.
    So excited to see so many, many wild and crazy blocks - just perfect :thumbup:
