Cool chick quilt
My Friend Suzanne found this free pattern on line over a year ago, she told me about it and I printed it out, but never made it. At a St. Patrick's day party my very talented friend Suzanne brought me some bright yellow fuzzy fabric to use for the chick. I was so excited about this, and the idea of using grass fabric, I couldn't sleep and started making it the next morning.
I let my girls design several of the eggs in the quilt. I ironed muslin onto freezer paper and gave them fabric markers and fabric crayons. They had so much fun and are very proud of their contributions to the quilt.
The patterns is for 11 eggs and one chick, but I did 24 eggs because I wanted it bigger. If you have ever paper pieced anything, this is a VERY easy pattern and goes together quickly.
