Yes, I have done chicken scratch....years ago....just did a pillow top, not a quilt. Fun to do. "someday" I'd like to play with it again. I have a friend who does all her quilts in chicken scratch.
this is so ironic, my mother's name was Willie Mae and she did a Chicken Scratch pillow for my 2 daughters years ago, and one of them was red and looked just like one of yoour blocks.
