I'm glad you led me back into tempation too! I've always loved the Ks but they don't sell well around here so I put them aside a couple of years ago.
The larger chickens would be good if the background is busier - the busier the better! The size is good because I cut 3 3/4" strips for the triangles and like you see in dunster's quilt, it works best if the images are chopped up so you see an eye here, a beak there etc. If you really don't mind taking some pics next time you go, I'll wait til then, otherwise I'll go argue with Hans between K1 and K4 - or maybe ask you to get me some of both! :D BTW what is the length of the pattern repeat on those two?
