Hen Potholders
I'm invited to a surprise birthday party/potluck supper. I made this set of potholders for the birthday lady. She raises chickens and sells eggs, so I thought the hen potholders would be a good gift for her. I made so many mistakes piecing the blocks, the seam ripper had a workout. I cut some of the pieces the wrong size and had to redo them. Even with 32 years of quilting experience, errors can still happen, groan! The block pattern can be found in the book, "Block Magic" by Nancy Johnson-Srebro.
