Chickens embroidery pattern
My daughter used to raise chickens and I loved listening to their happy clucking as they scratched outside the window of my studio.
If you love chickens too, then this is the embroidery pattern for you. 🥰
I designed it to be easy to pull out individual elements. Stitch the rooster on one tea towel, and hens and chicks on others. Stitch a row of baby chicks around the hem of an apron. Stitch one image on a T-shirt or onesie. You can even skip the stitching and use the designs to make a card! Have fun!
This is a PDF pattern, delivered instantly and ready to print onto letter-size paper. No shipping costs and no waiting! If you're not sure what a PDF pattern is, you'll find more info here.
If you'd prefer to get the PDF pattern and a set of these motifs already printed on Sulky Stick & Stitch, you can find that here.
Add some chickens to your flock right now. :-)

Size
The largest rooster is 3 3/4 inches wide and 4 inches tall. The single unhatched egg is 7/8 inches wide and 5/8 inches tall.
You can also enlarge or reduce them to any size you like. In the photos you can see my daughter in a T-shirt stitched with one of the dogs from the first Dapper Dogs pattern.
Difficulty
It depends on the stitches you choose! You can use the four beginner stitches I suggest and make it very easy, or you can use some of the more complex stitches in the tutorials and make it a skill stretcher. It's up to you!
