OK, everyone. Ready for June's block? It's all ready to be printed out.

And since there were only 9 people who got their May block done and posted before the deadline, I've decided you 9 are all winners! So, I'll be sending you a FQ. If you have a special preference as to style or color, just PM me. I'll also need mailing addresses (plus your real name!) for: pch, darn75, goaskmom, and AuroraB. I'm pretty sure I have names and addresses for you other 5 ladies, but it probably wouldn't hurt to PM me with them again - my CRS has been kicking in lately! LOL

Congrats to all the winners. Thank you for my FQ for last month. Got it in today's mail, I think it is pretty Smile (asked for her least favorite FQ as love seeing what other people don't like as well after seeing the ugly FQ challenges on here.)
Mom (tommitalk) and I just posted our May blocks on May's thread. Now will be working on June's. Got the fusible cut out now the fabric choices.

I love the pattern this month, and tho I'm behind since its gardening season for me, I keep printing off the patterns for when I have time to catch up. Can't wait to see what everyone does with this one.

For those who fall behind...remember to post your photo when you do get a block finished. Post on the newest thread and identify the month. Don't forget, there's a drawing for a nice prize at the end of the year for everyone who posts photos of all 12 blocks.

I've only got to finish two of these. Still trying to put things away after our recent move.

If I can get enough blocks done, it's going on a table on my back porch.

Here is my June block but I am going to need to find the contractor that built this chicken coup. Seems as tho he was not paying attention to what he was doing and put the chicken wire up sideways.

I am now out of the chicken wire fabric and the place that I got it from has "no more"!! So will need to go to something else for the background of the next 6. At least I made half of them so maybe I can alternate them in the quilt.

I love looking at everyone's chickens and how different colors we all come up with!!

goaskmom, I just recently saw some at Hancock's of Paducah. Luckily I got to shop in the store, but I am sure if you call them one of the ladies will know where to find it. HTH

All of the chics are looking great...we're gonna have some super cool funky quilts when done!

I felt a little more energetic yesterday, and too advantage of that. Got my chics caught back up...here is May.

I'm gonna be behind for a few months. I left my June pattern at home. Too hard to work with the fiddley little pieces in the RV. I'll sure keep tabs on what everyone else is doing, though, and I'll download the patterns so I'll have them.

Good job, everybody.
