Ain't Nodoby here......

.......but us chickens! When I first received this Anchor kit I wasn't sure if I liked it because it was so different from my usual style. But, as I started working on it and the chickens came to life, it really grew on me. I do like the bright colours and it is a perfect match for my terracotta and blue dining room, which is where it now hangs.

The people we bought our house from used to keep chickens and sell the eggs and although the idea appeals to me, with four crazy dogs who chase anything that moves, it would probably be a recipe for disaster!

  3. I would say that piece is just perfect for your house with its history of chicken raising, Shirley. You did a beautiful job in your stitching AND your finishing :)
