I have done some years ago, enjoyed doing it. But, since I have moved twice now - don't know where the directions are. That is just beautiful!!!!

I learned to do chicken scratch at a very young age with my Great Aunt Myrtle. She made aprons of it and table runners. There are books with it in sometimes in that big cardboard folders at Michaels, JoAnns. I have not done this in years. Thanks for the memories.

My MIL (GOD REST HER SOUL) made skirts for the girls (SILS) with gingham and embroidery thread. 8 girls in that family! I helped until I fell asleep and my MIL stayed-up all night to finish for Easter Sunday. I learned a lot from that lady!

They live in the midwest and years later on a visit, I saw the fabric as pillow cases.

OMG!!! I haven't heard of that in years. The quilt is just beautiful. I made pillows using Chicken Scratch; I liked it because even my needlework friends couldn't figure out how it was done. Thanks for the memories.
