Hi You may remember helping me with this rooster top awhile back. Well, I took all your suggestions, put them together and came up with this.
The inner border is the same as the cornerstones and the outer border is dark (black actually) and matches the belly on all the roosters.
Now I just need to quilt it. I'll echo quilt the roosters and figure out the borders soon.
Hope you enjoy this. Your suggestions give you all a piece in this quilt. My family room wall can't wait to display it.

Great quilt. Love the bright colours. Is that your own or a commercial one. What is it called, please and thank you.

The roosters are all separate patterns of Florine Johnson Designs. I took a class at our LQS. We called it the Radical Chicks Class". We first learned the applique fusing process (my first time w/ applique) and then how to machine applique. We could do as many roosters as we wanted and then finish in whatever way we chose. You can find the patterns on her website @ FlorineJohnsonDesigns.com. We had so much fun with this class that I wish it was still going on. I just got 2 more of the patterns and will be making pillows. Glad you liked it and good luck with yours if you decide to do one.

I am not a big rooster fan, but after seeing your quilt I may have changed my mind. You did a beautiful job. It's just lovely!

craftybear 03-16-2010 02:14 PM

Awesome, rooster top, you did a great job!

Do you also decorate your kitchen in roosters, if so you could make kitchen placemats, trivets etc.

I bought my friend a cute rooster cutting board at our local store, Meijer for her birthday! She loved it!
