Your Big Fat Chicken Fabric shops Bundle Ten Pieces Almost 7 1/2 Yards Vintage Near-Vintage OOP Chickens Roosters Eggs Baskets Sunflowers

Chicken fans don't miss out on this mixed bundle of vintage and almost vintage fabrics to add variety to your stash and inspire your next project. The centerpiece of this 2-pound 7.5-ounce bundle is a nearly 4-yard uncut piece of fabric featuring egg baskets on red.

These cotton fabrics would be perfect for a range of sewing projects: quilting, bags, pillows and more. The basket fabric could be a solid block in a quilt alternating with blocks featuring the other fabrics or it could be a border or backing. It will not be difficult to find complimentary blender or background fabrics for these feature fabrics in classic colors. The chicken and rooster theme would work well in rooms with a cottage, farmhouse, folk or country décor style.

When my relative was actively building her stash, she always gave the fabrics a good washing and clipped their selvages every few inches to prevent puckering. These pieces received that careful attention. As a result, these pieces are slightly smaller than as originally cut. These fabrics have been freshly ironed and trimmed ever so slightly to freshen the cut edges. Together, this bundle includes almost seven and a half yards of chicken-themed fabric. Though only one fabric selvage indicated a date, these fabrics most likely date from the late 1990's and early 2000's.

These unused, out of print fabrics are in excellent condition. They have been safely stored in a smoke-free home. Please refer to the detailed photos in making your decision. This offering includes the described ten-piece bundle only, any props shown are not included. Please feel free to Etsy message me with any questions. Because the listing includes 10 pieces, I have more photos than I could include with the listing that could be shared with you.

Each person sees colors a bit differently and photos fall short in portraying the actual colors. For reference, both Moda Bella(B) Solids and Robert Kaufman Kona(K) Solids offer swatch boards of hundreds of their fabric shades. I rely on these swatches and fabrics as I work with antique and vintage blocks and antique quilt tops. To my eye, some of shops the key colors in this fabric bundle include: reds closest to K 355 Cayenne and B990 229 Brick Red; yellow to golds in K 1479 Amber and B 9900 292 Amber; tans in K 1323 Sand, K1369 Tan, B9900 13 Tan and B9900 39 Parchment.
