Love your top and the chicken wire background...love all the colors in the blocks. Its a sure thing to bring a smile on the face of the beholder!! Our pullet ladies sing to my dh as he feds them and collects the eggs from the hen house. Good luck on quilting it, no ideas there as I do not machine quilt....the quilts. I pay someone else to do that!!

I just can't explain enough how much I love this quilt. First the chickens are awesome and then the colors you used are awesome too. Wow wow wow! So much fun.
peace
EDIT: As far as quilting it, I like the outline and wire effect. If you did echoing, what would it hurt if some of it went into the borders?
How about some echoing and just some patches of chicken wire so it only has a hint of it and the birds can still look like free range chickens!

I am in the same boat with this quilt. I loved working on it - I used every possible bright/lound piece of fabric I could find, it just made me smile every time I picked it up but now have to figure out how to quilt it. Will post pics when done.
