Disappearing nine patch block swap

[katsdar]

Well I guess I'm just impatient. I went to an animal swap and ended up buying some hatching eggs and I am waiting on them to hurry up and stop baking 2 weeks to go!!!!! I can't wait

What did you get katsdar? DH is mostly the hatching man. He has some heritage Bar Rock in there. He already did Marans, Buff Orpingtons, Easter Eggers, rouens (ducks) and Welsh Harlequins (ducks).

BCM's they will be mixed, Easter eggers, I put in 3 of my RIR's I think that is all, I can't wait for them to hatch, I sing to them a very short chicken song, and then when they hatch and you sing to them they really perk up like I know that song, and then they come when they hear my voice so I don't have to chase them all over the yard it is so cute, and then they continue to come when they are big. My DH calls me the chicken wisperer. I only sing to them when I'm turning them

Our Marans are mixed too.

Chicken whisperer? Well I'll have to share that story with DH and son. We have an automated turner so I am not sure how that would work. DS 15 did hatch about 10 geese at one time and he was their dad. Very cute but all those geese plus the parents all in the back yard was too much. Also some visitors got chased as they were scared and the birds could feel it.

Thats funny good watch birds

My blocks are ready. Now to pack up and send them.

 

[katsdar]

Dear Chicken whisper and all, my Dear Aunt just gave me a sweet little Singer Featherweight 221-1made in 1937, that has been in the family a long time. I have been messing around with it to get working and having a great time.

It's up and sewing now, so I'll sew a few of these blocks with her too.
I'm about a third of the way done with my blocks, it won't take long now.
