I am getting hooked on chicken-themed quilts! Although I have not made any for me, I made two for my sister: the first one ended up at the home of one of her friends who would not let go of it once she saw it. Then, I decided to make another one just like the first, so Miriam, my sister, would finally have her chicken quilt.
Well, I liked it so much I will have to make one for me. I have been saving fabrics… You must have seen a similar quilt before, as the pattern is quite popular:
Its name is Spring Chickens (pattern MQ #195 by Meme’s Quilts). This time, I modified it just a bit, using the same fabric for sashing and border, adding large ric-rac before I sewed the binding on. The flower stems were made with the same ric-rac.
Visiting Sherri Gool’s site is like entering a candy store – you want it all!!! Her patterns are all fun, including her primitive dolls. The desire of having more hours in a day came back to me, as I really wanted to just lock myself in my studio and sew, sew, sew most of her creations…
Sherri Gool, you rock!
Love the chickens!
Hugs
Thanks! They seem to be in a hurry, and I can so relate to them!!!
