Would you give us the name of that book, please? Thanks!

Great job! Those are adorable! Chickens were never my thing, but I love the funky ones. Thanks for sharing!

Too cute, gave me a good chuckle, applique is something that takes a lot of practice but I've never been very good at it, only on small projects. Any chance you would share your "chicken" pattern"? Love it!!

These are very primitive but very cute and imaginative. I have never done applique before either. It looks like you have done a good job on your first try. I hope to get the guts to try applique as I have always wanted to have a Baltimore Album quilt. I can have such grandiose ideas. I know your next applique project will be fantastic. Jeannibelle
