Every Monday some of my friends come over and we have a cup of tea and and stitch for a couple of hours.  This is the project I usually work on unless I have something else that really needs to get done.  The pattern is called Hens and Chicks.

 

It is all hand pieced.  I collected Oriental fabrics and I have 16 fabrics.  That was the hard part.  The Oriental fabrics are so beautiful that it's hard to decide which ones to use.  I think I will make 48 squares, 3 in each fabric, but who knows. 

 

I started this project a while ago but I don't think I'll mention exactly how long that was.
