I love your chicken and I've got it all figured out. I clicked on the translater flag and it was very easy.Sorry for being ignorant , but what does Almazuelas and Galina mean.Just wondering.
Thankyou GVO9, I learned 2 more new words.
Hi, Greeter Eva!
Galina not, is Gallina (double l) = chicken
Almazuelas = A almazuela is a blanket, clothing or fabric in general, sewing built with more or less rectangular pieces of other tissues to reuse them. It derives from the Arabic or almozaia almozala of almoçala, rug, bed cover. The almazuela is first documented in texts of the seventeenth century Rioja.
English term equivalent to the patchwork, a term most used in Spanish-speaking countries "almazuela." This term is used today mainly in the autonomous community of La Rioja, where the crafts are very popular and has many followers.
I hope that answers your question!
A big hug!

It's nice to do something small that doesn't take the time a quilt does, this is also a great idea for using up those extra blocks that are left over. Thanks for sharing!

That sounds very interesting. Will the blocks using this technique be the fill in blocks?

Hello, Greeter Eva!
Sorry I do not know if I understand your question.
I think you asked if the parts Almazuelas will form new blocks?
Yes, I think the idea will make 4 pieces Almazuelas first. With these forms a new block. With several of them will form a quilt, which we call Almazuelas Sampler.
I hope I have explained!
A big hug!

It is not my design.
I learned to a Spanish quilter called Belén ir her blog Belén Patchwork (http://belenpatchwork.blogspot.com/).
She did the chicken TUTORIAL on her blog in these entries: Part 1 (http://belenpatchwork.blogspot.com/2...a-1-parte.html) and Part 2 (http://belenpatchwork.blogspot.com/2...a-2-parte.html).
They can learn the technique well Almazuelas per picture.
If anything is unclear, they may ask, I did my own photos.
A big hug!
