    I needed a break from my R/W/B blocks this weekend so I finally laid out my chickens. I put them with my scrappy plaids from the Quilting Bee One Block Swap and I think it's just all the funkier. It seems to work because a lot of the chicken blocks have a plaid in them. This is a ways down the list to get put together, but I like the layout. I'll have to make a couple of small fillers and have some red chickenwire on cream background to use for that. I also have a bunch of plaids to use as a scrappy border. Can't wait to put it together for good. It may have to work it's way to the top of the list soon. LOL.

    I agree...the scrappy plaids are just the right touch!! Now I want one even more but need to wait until I finish what I'm working on now.

    Hi All, I'm new here and was looking at the funky chicken swap. All the chickens are just so much fun.
    Has anyone ever done a cat swap? No, I'm not going to start it. I will keep an eye out if it does happen. :-)
