The fabric w/ the birds has all the perfect colors in your fabric. And the cats are so mellow after all the beer and wine, the birds are safe. lol

It's great to hear from you Billi... it's been too long. I was worried you had dropped out! Glad you've just been having fun. I don't know where your daughter has been living, but mine lived in England for 8 years! That is not doable... I was so happy when she and her English hubby decided to live in America. Now they are only 3 hours away.

I had to laugh. On your block that's exactly what I tried to do, using interfacing as one side of the circle. It turned out terrible. I went back to my raw edge applique. I actually used one of the failed Terriamn blocks, cut apart as one of Janice's block.

My brother in law is working near a Tyson chicken house. Seems 200 2 day old chicks escaped. 6 were under his work truck, he captured them but only 3 made it to the end of the day. He brought them to me, I quickly set up the brooder, they were weak and chilled, but now they are warm and resting, they all ate and drank. They are looking bright eyed so we'll see how it goes w/ them.

Don't get me started on how those chicken plants treat the chickens! Grrrr... The three that found their way to you, Kass, are so lucky! They found the Chicken Promised Land.
