In September our guild started a monthly challenge. We were asked to choose a theme and to follow that theme throughout the year. I chose "Chickens and Roosters and Chicks, Oh My!" (don't ask-- it just popped in to my head and sometimes I wish it popped out again!). Each month we are given a technique to use to make our block. So far we have done traditional hand-piecing, circles and curves, reverse applique, and stained glass.

This month's technique is Snippets. Am I right in thinking that this is small pieces of fabric attached to a backing using fusible stuff. I was going to cut small bits of fabric to make it look like feathers. Am I headed in the right direction?

Thanks for your help!!!
