Chickens for my birthday

-

My husband and grandson went to Tractor Supply and brought me home an early birthday present. Six little chicks, the lady told them they were all going to be hens. My husband made them a little house out of one of our old aquariums. I present them here for your viewing pleasure!

Now, really are down "In The Boon Docks"! Create and be unique, Lisa

    How long before scrambled eggs and are they going to be brown eggs or white eggs? They are so cute now.

    How cute! I would love to have chickens but even as far out as we are, they aren't allowed.

My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle?

Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
