Counting My Chickens
Over on the Quilting Board I found a very fun tutorial for cute little "funky chicken" pin cushions. The poster used selvage for some of her creations, and had a truly funky topknot, comb...or whatever that thing on top is called. I just used some trimmings from some red batik that I had on hand. This was fun to make, and the tutorial is very easy to follow: selvage/funky chicken pin cushion tutorial link. Here's the one I made:
"Gertrude"?
She's stuffed with rice, a bay leaf and hot pepper flakes to dissuade bugs, and BBs for a bit of heft in her setter. Not sure, but I think she looks like a "Gertrude".
