Chicken Block #3 finished

I finished my June chicken block and decided to use the log cabin blocks for the 

building theme drawn for this month.  I appreciate all your great suggestions

for themes and will consider them in the future.    

This block required a little work before I could add the log cabin blocks.  The

background fabric had some stains that wouldn't wash out, so what's a girl to do?

I couldn't leave this cute little chick out of the mix, so I cut the background

fabric away and hand appliqued it to a new background fabric.  I am more 

of a novice when it comes to hand applique, so it was a good way to 

practice my skills.  

I am not totally satisfied with the size of the 2" center squares in the log cabin

blocks, they seem a little large.  I mulled over the idea of making another set

of blocks with a smaller center, although these blocks fit perfectly and I like

the size of the logs otherwise.    What would you do?

I tried to upload some other projects I've been working on, but for some reason

they won't upload.  Maybe in a few days.  I've been playing with blogger and

revamping my blog.  I thought blogger had some better templates, can I say

I'm not impressed.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative week!
