When we got home, after lugging our supplies down the lane again, I started a new chicken. This one may end up sitting on a nest. I will see how it looks when I get to the point of adding feet or not.
Once again, I started with a very rough drawing, divided into squares and triangles. The comb was a huge challenge and I am still not satisfied with it. I want it to be longer and more pointy. I might make another one and try to add it on. The one that is there is sewn on at an angle and could be removed quite easily.
The second picture shows a sample of what the wing fabric could be. I think the dark one might be all right but the lighter one is too light.

Man, you are having a lot of fun with your brood. I like the dark wing, too.
while each block takes some time with the drawing etc., they sure are looking good... will you quilt a fox stealing the eggs? ;-)
It is so fun to see how you are developing this chicken quilt!
I love watching your creative process.
They are fun chickens indeed!
