Two dozen done and gone, have to make more. The eggs are almost ready to hatch!
Now I can pick and choose or combine the pieces for the roosters Ilike best, I decided I prefer the pointy tail feathers, must sharpen my scissors!

Great roosters! Are they going to stay mounted on the boards to hang? Curious minds want to know!

Very handsome birds.

Are you making a wall picture with them being mounted on boards?

twinkie 10-13-2015 02:51 AM

Very nicely done, just curious what you are doing with them.

quilterpurpledog 10-13-2015 02:58 AM

Really like your handsome roosters. You must have a purpose for them because you have so many of them. Will you share your plan a bit late?

My sister has a long arm and quilts my stuff when the spirit and her health allows. There is always a pile waiting so I decided to try something different. I am making two of most applique since it is just as easy to sew two with the same color thread as one. One is to be made into a hanging or couch size throw and needs to be quilted. The other is stretched and stapled onto canvas that I buy on sale at Michael's and ready to hang on the wall.Two dozen were bought for a big October sale in Key West and the rest sell fast enough to keep me busy supplyig the shop. It's a great way to sell wall hangings with no quilting!

This is the fish top also stretched it on canvas.
Roosters stitched and stretched and hens also put into tops and placemats.
Two 40+ inch roosters waiting to be stitched (the last one). Have to teach a guild make and take Thursday using a sea turtle so busy making up 100+ kits!

Wow! That background really makes him show well.

They're beautiful! Are they your own design or from a pattern you found?

Sewfine 10-13-2015 06:37 AM

Are these on a canvas board. If so, yes I do it all the time.

Tartan 10-13-2015 06:40 AM
