Marcia: At our quilt class last week a lady was making a chicken quilt and used some of the same "chicken wire" fabric you have in yours. She said she couldn't remember where she had purchased the fabric. Do you remember? Several people in the class wanted to get some to make their own chicken quilt. None of us had ever seen it in our fabric store wanderings.

How very fun your quilt is! Very nice and I am glad she loves it.

I have a friend that collects chicken everything. Honestly she has a chicken in every corner of her house. I can't really say anything about it though. It is all so cute! I have made many chicken things for her kitchen. My favorite pattern is "we're chicken too" It is chickens with a floating wing that you make potholders and towels with. It was very fun to do.

I know she will cherish it marcia. It is adorable.
