My Quilt Challenge

I belong to a great primitive quilting group and this summer we had a quilt challenge.
We had to send a partner, 3 fat quarters and any embellishments we wanted.
This is what I was sent to work with.



I have been working on and off all summer and had no idea what I was doing, just added as I went and this is what I came up with. I will add some tabs to the top to hang it with, maybe on the kitchen window or it might be a present for someone who loves chickens and roosters;) It is hard to see on the quilt, but there is a lot of stitching with the thread she gave me, all hand done.

Thanks Jacque,
It was a challenge, using things in a quilt I had never tried before. It was fun though and I learned a lot doing it.

Thank you Paula,
I had no idea what I was doing, just started building up as I went and thinking of uses for the embellisments she sent. It was a fun challenge.
