I finished # 12 at the doctors office this morning.
I meant to start another one during Survivor. But the library had the newest book of poulty breeds waiting for me. It's like the seed catalog of birds, better even than a hatchery catalog because you get the back story on all of them.

Storey's Illustrated Guide to Poultry Breeds

Check it out!

Now I know what Miss Prissy's Embdens were supposed to look like.
DD #2 wants a Sebastopol Goose.
I think the Midget White Turkey is kinda cool!
And Dh was stunned that it listed a Naked Neck chicken advantage as "easy to pluck" rofl

We all wish we had a Polish.

And DH knows I'm getting MilleFluer dUccles and Welsummers

So, now that I've fed the hatch habit a little more, guess I'd better get back to hookin!!!

Yeah, I may be asking my kids to get me a copy for my birthday. It's just too cool.

Well, I would have got more squares done today, but I spent all day cleaning up the mess that someone made when they hacked into my email account, changed my password and sent spam emails to all of my contacts.

I had to send 250 plus apologies to everyone who received these emails saying I was in Nigeria stranded and needed money. un
Make sure your email accounts have really good security cause this could happen to anyone!!

Ooooo... another cool Storey's book. I have the Guide to Raising Chickens already. Can't wait to check out the new one!

Okay... just to clarify how to do this...
do we need to have the final tied off tail woven in or do people prefer to weave those in as they connect squares? Also, I usually wait and wash my thing once the whole piece is assembled. Do you want us to wash and block these squares before we mail them?

I went ahead and did 6 more (36 total) so everyone could get one. Whoohoo!
