I don't have a dozen eggs



but I do have a dozen chickens/roosters!  The applique' part is done - now I just need to square up/trim the blocks and add sashing before putting the top together.


I tried to do a video to show all my 'beautiful' poultry but something wasn't co-operating.  It was so easy the first time I tried ( last week or maybe the week before) - making the video was easy this time, just couldn't get it to play once I got it onto my blog page.  I've been trying for over an hour and getting quite grumpy in the process.  Yes, some naughty words have escaped my lips... I just hate being frustrated over something that was so simple before.


Guess I'll just have to show you the last three....




It took me most of the afternoon to trace onto fusible, cut out the fusible pattern, fuse onto fabric, cut again, fuse together onto a silicone sheet and then on to the background fabric and then doing the applique' for each of the three chickens. It seemed to take forever; I was surprised when I looked at the clock at one point and saw that I'd only been at it for a couple of hours... thought for sure it must be close to dinner time.

Ok, now that I've given up on trying to put a video on here tonight, I'm going to go take a load of towels out of the dryer and put a second load in ( yeah, I do housework once in awhile lol).  I can fold the towels later tonight while watching tv.

What to work on next

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
