Just a comment on the backing. You are talking about a quilt for a 3 year old. I would not use anything light as it will show dirt, food, etc. I would take a color such as the red and back it with that.

I love the fabric, if it was me making this quilt I would find in my Ispy bin things that would go with A eg: A Apple B Bear make them into larger blocks of course you are going to end up with A larger quilt then I would use a bright multi strip fabric cut on the cross for the binding

I need help too. I can't find any Chicken blocks to make for my DH. We live on a very small farm and have even check out the local library 15 miles north but nothing to show color. I saw the chicken quilt t while back on here and have been looking ever since. Please help me if you can. Shirley Anne in Alger.

I have 1 of these panels and that is what I will be doing with it.
