    I love your quilt. The colors that you chose are so bright and cheery. Can't wait until you post photo of it with borders.

    Hi! Where did you purchase the chicken wire fabric? One of my daughters loves chickens, and I'd like to someday do something similar to the other gal's quilt. I hope she enters that quilt into a show!

    Melissa! That quilt is awesome! I hope you enter it into a show. I saw where some respondent suggested a chicken wire border would be good. . . that sounds like a great way to finish the quilt. One of my daughters loves chickens, so you've given me a great idea. Thank you.

    Melissa, if you haven't decided on borders yet, I have seen "egg" fabric and "chicken feathers" on a UK site, see
    http://www.thebramblepatch.co.uk/sho...IC&SG=Chickens

    They don't say who the manufacturer is though - I can contact them & ask if you would like me too - it would expensive to buy from Uk though as you can see, but you should be able to source it in USA.
