Hen Party Finished!

I am a happy camper to have finished Hen Party before the end of the year!

I posted links to previous posts about this project (and close up pics of the hens) at the bottom of this post. You can revisit (or visit for the first time) the progress if you want to by clicking on those links.

It is a dark photo, but you can see what the back looks like. Good thing you can’t examine close up, however! I can never seem to get a pieced backing on straight!

I like a lot of texture!

And the completed quilt, including binding and a label:

It has been a struggle. I had to get a new computer. Transferring and getting everything ‘just so’ to the new pc has been confusing and stressful, but I am learning my way around. My old pc and I were such good friends, and I am sad to say goodbye! Hello to Windows 11 and OneDrive!

I have questions! But I am blessed! Tomorrow, (which will be today by the time this posts) the Hubster and I are driving to spend the Thanksgiving Holiday with our son and his wonderful family.

You know how I am going to get my questions answered! Oh yes! Son is going to help me and my new pc get much better acquainted!

I wish you all a very blessed and Happy Thanksgiving! I know I have much to be grateful for!

Remember this project?

Hen Party

It has been marinating for a bit.

Connie, who blogs at Adventures in Every Day Life, made a suggestion, and I had already been considering it, of naming the hens. I liked the idea, but wasn’t so sure that I wanted to spend the time.

So into the marinating closet it went to age until the time was right.

So Connie, this post is for you! The Divas at this particular hen party are named!

I used a light gray (#2600) 12 weight Aurifil cotton to stitch the names.

Have fun and carry on!

Hen Party is now a flimsy!

Hen Party

So happy to report that all fabric came from the stash! Most of it many years old!

Hen Party

I had just enough of the black and chicken fabrics to use for sashing and borders.

Hen Party

This flimsy will be in time out for a while. Not because we aren’t having fun together (we are), but because Hubby and I will be taking a cross country road trip soon…it will be a great adventure!
