I love her patterns & if you go to the home page at fatcatpatterns the turkey pattern is free this month. But I changed it to suit my needs. Her blocks work up at 16 1/2" so I had to reduce it to 70%. Then I didn't want to do each of the tail feathers individually so I redrew the tail as just 3 whole pieces. I think that's the only changes I made.

Mimiknoxtaylor - I love your turkeys beautiful fabrics. I agree with what Sula suggested for the threads and thank you for the link for the free turkey pattern. I've printed it out to try later. Im very intrigued by the way the feathers are done.

Hand appliqué takes longer but you get the raw edge hidden. There are some great tutorials here & you'll have to find which method you prefer.
Remember have fun & don't stress over it.
good luck

Thank you so much for your chubby turkey pattern. It also introduced me to a new site. Appreciate your willingness to share
