I have started adding some border hit and miss colors and hooked some background. I left a little on the other chicken so that when I get too bored with border and background there will still be something in the chicken to do. This picture was taken with a flash and shows up the colors a bit brighter.
This picture was without a flash and is a tad darker than it appears in person.
As mentioned previously, this is a Polly Minick design called Daleview Farm which was originally designed with 3 chickens. If you wish to purchase it you can order it from her web site: http://www.minickandsimpson.com/catalog.php?category=15
Now back to the drawing board..... really...... I've cut and serged the linens and now to draw out a couple more designs.
Hi, Saundra,
ReplyDeleteThe black and white tweed (?) that you used for the chickens is wonderful, and so are your antique background colors. Do you know that you have the nasty word verification thingy on for blog? It is two words that are nearly impossible to read, sometimes you have to try several times to leave a comment.

What a fun pattern. I'm off to a regional ATHA hook-in tomorrow. I only have rugs to bind...well, not true...there's that unfortunate pumpkin rug that should be banned from the free world. So, I'm binding...and looking for new patterns. Keep us posted on the chickens...they are looking great!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Hugs,
