I know what you are thinking. What do these chicken have to do with quilting? Like many of you chickens are my inspiration, my muse, and the back up singers for the quilt,
Chicken Music.

Did you ever have a chicken phase? For a long time chickens were the theme of many of my quilts. They became so familiar, I could free-cut a chicken in any pose: nesting, dancing, singing. Making chicken quilt after chicken quilt is called "working in a series".
Alas, my chicken themed quilts are now a thing of the past. You could say they have gone home to roost.

I have yet to do a series, but a Christmas tree series is in my plans. Ha ha. My fused Christmas tree quilt was such a hit that I have to repeat it.
Do you have your chicken themed quilts in a Flickr album or other online album somewhere?
I love your Chicken Music! Fantastic!
Nope; not a chicken person (though I once roomed with one at a quilting retreat). I'm a cat person who has yet to make a Puss-in-the-Corner block...but it's on my bucket list!
I always hated doing chickens or roosters, my grandmother made them all the time, but now I am beginning to like them and they are fun to do in pieces.
