SwirlyThoughts: Some chicken cards

Some chicken cards

I would love your opinion on these please! I have been wanting to make some chicken cards for a while now to go with the rest of my chicken stuff but hadn't thought about how to make them when I spotted a triangular piece of fabric in my scraps and voila!

The stitching is deliberately messy to match the scrappy aspect of the materials used.

I think I like the coloured backgrounds with the plain chickens but I also like the first chicken one too!

The photo of the one above is awful but it was taken at 8am on Sunday morning when the sun had barely come up!

As I said I would love your opinions (good or bad) and would like to know if you would buy them? Thank you :)

Daisie said...: They look really cool Lyns, try some smaller chickens without the 'grass' though before you decide on a final design. I think they're a brilliant addition the the home of the original cheeky chicken!!
