        Wonderful pattern and FUN!

        The pattern is just excellent! The applique pieces are clearly labeled. The individual tutorials are very helpful. I am enjoying the creation of each block. Making a quilt for donation (school fundraiser), so having a family-themed, fun quilt was exactly what I wanted to create.
        Thank you Wendi!

        Could I love these fun chicken’s any more than I do? Nah, they are awesome! You will find yourself smiling with every one you create. As the happy owner of a real life flock of 10, I am having great fun designing each chicken to represent the personality of one of my girls!

        once again, I love them all but my favourites are with the grid and the whole piece with chicken sounds. Can't wait to seethe worms
