I put the finishing touches on my new Henny Penny Pot Holder tonight. I drew up the pattern and stitched her together earlier this week, so I just had to stitch down the tips of her wings tonight, and she's done!
She's in my etsy shop, if you'd like her to live at your house.
Cluck cluck!
I hope you are making more of these right now! I MUST have a Penny Potholder!!!! I try to not "theme" the rooms in my house, but there are some serious roosters going on in my kitchen and I just have to have Penny in there keeping them all in line! Come to think of it, there's a cat, a few rabbits, a pig, and several frogs in there too...maybe my kitchen does have a theme, it's the barn yard!!!

Anna, she is adorable!!! I went to pick her up and she was gone!!! I need her for my kitchen which is all done in chickens and an "Anna Original" would be the best addition!!! I love all of you stitching creations, but they were ALL gone. You rock lady!!!

For heaven's sake! I really need to learn to check your blog before hitting the hay even if it's the ONLY one I check when I'm dead tired and ready for bed. Little Miss Henny Penny is precious. She sure makes me smile. I'll keep checking your Etsy shop. {{{hugs}}}

Anna, this chicken is adorable. Unfortunately only the night owls had a chance at her, now you have to make more I guess. I love your comment about not using in the microwave, lol

Anna,
Your Mom is right! I tried, too! Just LOVE this pot holder - actually, I love everything you do! I received my little zippered bag - thank you so much, it's absolutely perfect!!!
Hugs!

She is adorable! I love it that you made her eyes "crooked" with Xs in the buttons. And I love the feather pattern that you quilted into her breast. And such cute fabrics. She's far too cute to use as a potholder . . . maybe just as a decorative potholder.
