Chicken Prints


"Chicken Prints" was a set of place mats constructed from Moda's "All Cooped Up" fabrics. One side is a motif of chickens surrounded by chicken footprints. The other side is a motif of chicken coop wire surrounded by chicken footprints. The colors are primarily off-white, black and burgundy. I used a chicken coop wire motif for the quilt stitches. This was a gift for my mother's 72nd birthday, and it took two days to make; completed in August of 2005. I used temporary basting glue to help keep the seams of the binding turned under as I pinned it.
