We are repainting out kitchen and I love roosters! I was trying to think of items to sew for the kitchen and this is what I've done so far. I still need to do placemats and hotpads, but other than that, I'm not sure what else I can do. Does anyone know of a rooster wall hanging pattern? Preferably a free one that I can download as $ is really tight right now.

Thanks for looking!

Those potholders are super cool! How did you make them?

They're not free but you might get some ideas to make your own versions. ;-)

a pattern from "Vanilla House Designs" They are called "Pot Pinchers" from LQS. Not too hard, I have big hands so I made them larger than the pattern. Haven't used them yet, so I don't know how well they're work.

You could applique a rooster on the corners of your dish towels and wash/dish cloths. (That is a bit extreme)

You could make seat covers/pads for your chairs.

You could make covers for your toaster and your coffee maker and your mixer.

(My personal feelings about appliances that need covers - if they are going to be unused long enough to get dusty, they should be put away somewhere - but that's just me)

If you have to leave your vacuum cleaner out, I've seen a couple of "covers" for them that were in the shape of a doll.

I love "Vanilla House Designs". I just won a red ribbon (2nd place) in a FCE mini conference competition displaying an apron.
