Not every project is a big one! I was out shopping at a local(ish) quilt shop last week and saw this fabric which features chickens working on knitting projects. It was designed by Gail Cadden for Timeless Treasures.

I have a friend who just added an annex to her hen house and now has 25 chickens (or more accurately 15 hens and 10 still indeterminate chicks which will either grow up to be laying hens or roosters who will be destined to become Sunday dinner at some point). In her spare time from her full time job, she knits and bakes to relax.

There was no way I could leave the store without a half yard of this fabric! All the other components of this project came out of my stash. And the best thing of all, the binding for the potholder was already made, a remnant from another quilting project!

A fun afternoon project!
