Diane, that is my goal to make one with each color. I would love to see your quilt. Post a picture.

I love Chicken Scratch. I did it years ago and have wanted to do it again but have found patterns hard to find. Your blocks look great!!!

Haven't done chicken scratch for years and had forgotten all about it! Love your quilt.

my mom does a lot of these. She has piles and piles of blocks in all colors. She as only made two or three quilts so far, but she loves to do it. It is her therapy; relaxation.

I've heard it called colonial lace before and personally I think it a much better name than chicken scratch.

It is an old pattern, made a baby quilt for a granddaughter who 2 months ago had her first baby, and sent me her old quilt to redo and freshen up so she can use it for her baby, I think she is 29 so, it is an older pattern, also made aprons out of gingham and chicken scratch at that time.
