most fun I have had in years ! Found this after google.com.
found this at site: http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/2005/03/aint_just_maple.html The chickens are made from a pattern brought to the U.S. by a nationally known and beloved quilter who died a few years ago named Doreen Speckman. She called them Norwegian pin cushions. Her daughter Megan still sells the pattern -- chickenpattern.freewebspace.com fun first project from Log Cabin design and wonderful little gifts!! Made several but never kept one of my own ! I have left over material, can't wait to finish my baby quilts and use the left overs pin coushin original designer Doreen Speckman, daughter still sells pattern Chichenpattern.freewebspace.com So worth it. Years ago I bought a quilt book with design. Happy to find again ! [ATTACH=CONFIG]56190[/ATTACH] |
That is so cute!! I saw Shar (Quilting from the Heartland) make one similar to this, but she went thru it so fast - I definitely have to give that pattern a look. Thanks for posting it!

What a cute pincushion! :D :D
|
So cute. Think I will try it.
|
I saw how to make that on quilterstv.com. It is too cute!
|
I'm going to have to try making that little chicken pin cushion...it looks like a square that has been folded across the middle and sewn on the pointy sides. I'll give it a try. Looks like maybe a 10 inch block.

I made a big one of these a while back & "Chickie" is a great door stop! lol
|
That is so cute and will make wonderful gifts for a few quilt buddies of mine. Thanks for sharing!!

:?: Has anyone purchased this pattern from Megan lately? I sent a check several weeks ago and haven't heard anything. I sent a follow-up e-mail to the address she has listed at this link and it was returned undeliverable. Wondering if they're no longer available? I really really want this pattern.

These were one of the free patterns at my quilt retreat in April and they were a HUGE hit! One lady spent most of her time making them and make a very large family of chickens - it was fun to watch (I didn't make them although I wish now that I had!). Great job!!
