Thank you all. It was fun to plan and make.
The quilt pieces/blocks are done but I didn't start sewing it together yet.
I've got to get it done to get it off the floor. The animals love it!
:-D

Here's the put together top. Now just thinking borders.

I have another question.
If I were to send this out to be quilted would they be able to quilt it with the eyes on? how about the yarn and the moving parts?
I've never sent one out.

Hi Susie
I was hoping that my heart chicken blocks would get to those who were not sending the top out to be quilted. I dont know what the rules are some quilters have different requirments. if you HAVE to, you can take the parts off and put it back on later, or take it off and do something different, its ok... I wont cry. :wink:

You'll just have to find your LA'er and ask her/him. I'm sure that they all have different ideas about it, so the best way to find out would be just ask the one you plan to use.

Oh Boy Oh Boy I got my Chicken blocks put together and I used some of my Farm Swap blocks to get a nice size top. Isn't the egg fabric just right! Moosegirl
