Just fabric I found at my LQS. I normally don't like to mix Batiks with regular fabric but I loved the off white background with wire. I've seen batik chicken wire fabric but only in blue and maroon. I'm planning on putting the blocks in shadow boxes.

I like it even more !

those are so cute!
|
Great chickens!
|
what fun chickens! you said you use heat and bond...then do you turn under the edges or finish them with satin stiching to keep from unraveling when washed? I am new to applique so bear with me!
|
Love your roosters. You did a great job selecting your fabrics. Very well done. Thanks for sharing.
|
They are beautiful. I would also like to know how you did them.
I love chickens, roosters too. |

One is for beginners(less pieces) and one with more pieces.

Oh I love Roosters. Yours is handsome. Great work.
I have one of those patterns by Florine. I must find it and make it up. |
that is fantastic! Wonderful work!
|
So very interesting!
|
They came out beautiful. Love all the bright colors. Where did you find the background fabric? I have been looking for some for awhile? I copied the patterns for those great chickens/roosters for a future project. You did a great job on them.
|
Those are fabulous!!!
|
Those chickens have great personalities.
|
I love the chicken wire background fabric!! That is perfect for these beautiful chickens! Great work!
|
Really like your cchickens.
|
I haven't made up my mind on how to treat the raw edges. Maybe a blanket stitch or a free motion thread painting. When I thread paint I use rayon thread so I'm not sure if it will hold up well for a bed quilt?
|
Ok where these hard to do? I love these but not to up on applique yet.
|
Beautfiul and fun!
|
Those are great!
|
Love your chickens...how did you do them? Hand or machine applique? Did you have any pattern, or are you able to visualize them and cut the fabric on the run?
|
Such saucy chickens! Wonderful.
|
great job
|
Oh my I just love those chickens! Gorgeous.
Maybe1day |
Cock-a-Doodle-Do! Beautiful.
|
I think they're roosters but I'm a city girl--what are they
|
