Thanks everyone!!!!! :D I found some black fabric with different colored chickens on it the other day and went ahead and got it. I couldnt find the color of chicken wire fabric I wanted. (I had used some in the quilt that was tan with brown wire that I really would have liked for the borders) I was afraid the lighter colors would just fall away. So I will play with this black and see what it will look like. :D

I bought most of it online and some was given to me. I dont remember which sites I got them from but I did use the fabric search to find it.

This quilt makes me SMILE! I think a tiny inner border (maybe finishing 1 inch) of that gorgeous turquoise blue you've used in several of the blocks would be a great highlight, and then I'd do the chicken foot print thing someone else mentioned with all the leftovers on chicken wire fabric if you can find it. I'm eager to see what you decide to do!
