She won't accept them if try to put new ones under her one day later. She is a bantam though so it is pretty hilarious in a few weeks when the chicks are almost as big as her and she still broods them.

You recognize that fabric? I love it!! Did I get it at Ada's? I used every inch, but I don't know what else I would have used it for. It's so pretty!

That is so funny about your hen. Having a hen raise these babies would be a whole lot easier for sure! We hope to have them in their coop after the next cold spell. How many chicks did you get? What kind? Hmm--should we talk about this in messages? lol

Oh my gosh - these are gorgeous. I actually like it when the backs are so nice that my gift recipients can't decide which is their favorite!

I find spending the day with grands tiring too--they are 1 and almost 3. All that in/out of the car seat stuff. And rescuing/protecting the 1 year old... LOVE every minute!! :-)

Thanks! I definitely like the fronts best--but wanted to play with leftover fabric for the big back. I love the quilting patterns they will have. Pantos--variegated thread... can't wait to see them.

Thanks. That blue will be used to bind the Triple Irish Chain. I'll use the wood like one on the log cabin. I picked a swirl for the log cabin--looks like waves.
