    Default How to Use this piece of fabric

    I am going through some of my stash and I need some suggestions as to what I can do with this 6 1/2 yards of country fabric. The blue at the bottom is 9 inches, chickens 2 1/2 inches and other stripes are 4 inches (approx.)

    Do you need new curtains in your kitchen?

    Would make beautiful borders for the right quilt - Chickens would be cute as center blocks for quilt - uniquely cute fabric

    The chickens would also make cute borders on dish towels. Maybe do matching curtains or valances for a coordinated look. Could also do a table topper or runner and place mats to complete the look.
