This was a really fun felt applique to do. I felted a lot of the wool for it myself. The pattern is by All Through the Night with just a couple variations from me.
I especially like this pattern because when my kids were little I'd call them chickens referring to the scriptures in which Christ would talk of gathering His covenant people unto Him like a hen gathering her chicks.
This was an imagery I could wrap my brain around, with my little ones running to and fro at the grocery store and other places. I wanted to gather them around me and keep them safe!
