When the hens escape the henhouse they can be found dancing around Grandma’s �ower garden looking for bits of stray seed. It’s time for an afternoon snack!

Cutting DirectionsNote: To make cutting the ribbon stripe pieces easier and more accurate, we have provided templates with centering lines. Position templates with the line in the exact center of the stripe to determine cutting position of the lengthwise stripe strips. Border measurements are given in the exact lengths required, including 4" seam allowances. WOF designates the width of fabric from selvedge to selvedge (approximately 42" wide).
