Thank you so much everyone!!! Your comments were heartwaming. It's my first attempt at applique so I am pretty darn proud of this one. I don't have the roosters in my kitchen but in my family room. I started with a gorgeous lamp with a rooster that I just had to have. Then I found gorgeous prints and the room took on a life of its own. I don't refer to it as a country look but a "dressed up country". Crazy I know but I love it. Believe it or not some of those roosters were even done with Asian fabrics. Thanks again !!!!! Debbie

Wow, this is great, both my Mum and I have always kept chickens, my Mum has embroidered several large ones on panels but she has not made a quilt, I am going to show her your quilt, she will love it!

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.

Wow this is an amazing quilt!!! great work!!!
