Welcome mrsmck. Hope you have fun here. I also love the quilt pattern you posted Rhonda.
Annaquilts, the chickie is adorable! When I made mine, I used a fire red or gold fringelike crochet thread (can't remember the name) in a tiny bunch as the cock's comb and it's fun as well. Instead of making pin cushions, I stuffed them and put little hangers on them and turned them into ornaments for the grandkids in their favorite colors...scrappy of course...and it's a favorite ornament. I really love yours!
