Fabric & Ribbon Poultry

I subscribe to lots of newsletters and read lots of blogs, and somewhere I saw these most adorable chickens!

Here's my version of "The Chickummyjig", which I think I found via WhipUp. It's a free pattern from Tania Ennor at http://www.myrtleandeunice.com/.

I am using all of my scraps to make as many of these chickens as possible. My son picked out the white fuzzy fabric for his chicken, and I have several brown fat quarters to make some more! The ribbon on the brown chicken legs is from American Crafts. The yellow fabric is about 12 years old, I can't remember who made it.

I'm thinking this is the birthday present all the little kids are going to get this year from me. They are so fun to make, and I laugh with joy when I am sewing them together.
