K-2: Grandpa's Chickens


Today we have block K-5, "Grandpa's Chickens." This one boasts the all-time high at 40 pieces! I think this showcases the best thing about paper piecing - precision. Each of these little pieces is about 5/8" square, and if this block hadn't been paper pieced there's no way I would have gotten this close with those corners. There are one or two wonky bits, but let's not focus on those!

I took a chance with this ladybug fabric, because it's more white than red, but hopefully it will work out in the grander scheme.

The DJ Tally:
44 blocks
2 triangles
0 kites
821 pieces total!
