maksi...that long legged chicken is ADORABLE!!!

I have the pincushion pattern here...somewhere...but I don't think that is the pattern you are looking for. Hope you find it though!

I think the ones shown in Birmingham, Alabama are a few years old. I love them anyway. I didn't get to see them before but now that I'm retired, am enjoying it.

No, but they are beautiful! The first ones you have are too curvey. The second batch are similar but these had long yellow feet. You'll see in the book another member found.

Yes, that's it! Thank you! Page 144 I'm not sure if it's Happy Chicken or Chicken on a stick but that's it. And Georgia talks about her trip. It seemed like the one she had on her arm on the show was slightly different in the wings, but the yellow legs were the same. But close enough. I'm putting it on my Amazon list. Thank you again!

The pincushion would be tiny but I would like that pattern also. Do you know where it is? The one I got at the Quilt Show was tiny and adorable, but also a triangle. The lady who made it wasn't there to ask her. I bought one and thought I could try to figure it out. The members blow me away with all the resources and how much everyone cares. Thank you and thank you all!

Even using translate on my computer I could not find anything there regarding the chicken pattern. Maybe someone else will have better luck with this site?

I did find a reference to the patterns name "Happy Chicken" in a Georgia Bonesteel show. But I don't know for sure that is the actual name of the pattern.

I had my translater going, but it did not translate everything LOL
I love poking around, even if it is just to look at pretty quilts, different techniques, etc... then I try and find them on another website that is in English :wink:

Sorry I couldn't do any better :(
