Rooster PATTERN* (my mistake, typo.) It is sooo cute, and most likely labor intensive, but I am making myself finish my sheep first! Darn borders...

I just bought my fabric. I need to throw it in the washing machine so I can get busy! I hate having to wait to start until after the fabric is washed. Wah!!!! :-(

I know right :-D I bought some that I want to test out another square with but I have to do 3 loads just to get it all washed because of the drastic difference in colors :cry: My son says he wants to help with the next one so we will see how that works, lol

I'm laughing so hard over here. The ad above this says "How I get Free Chicken". *LMAO* is someone listening to our conversations about chickens?

I can't wait to see all these chickens flying around.
No, sorry, i am not joining.
I have so much on my plate as it is, I'm going to have to have a Marathon Sewing Week just to catch up.

Tuesy...I saw that ad too and LMBO!!!

OK...BRT..rooster pattern...he is sure welcome to join the hen party!!

I usually throw all my fabric together to wash it, but I include like 4 color catcher sheets if I have weird colors. It seems to work pretty well...meaning no major catstophies just yet. :wink:

Terri...we'll be happy for you to cheer us on...although I know you already have at least 2 funky chicken blocks already done in your sewing room!
