Pat Sloan's Blog

🐔🐾Chicken Salad and planners (and more!)

The automated email to tell you a new article is out worked yesterday, yeah!! so you got a few emails yesterday. Now to hope it still works today.  I have to work with 2 different companies to make changes to get it back working so it is totally out of my control. 

REMINDER PLEASE READ ====>>>>  

• I have 10 Places on the Internet + email 
  • My Websites
    • Blog https://blog.patsloan.com/
    • Quilt along website https://www.ilovetomakequilts.com/ 
    • Overview website  https://www.patsloan.com/
  • Youtube video channel https://www.youtube.com/@PatSloan
  • Shopping page https://www.instagram.com/quilterpatsloan/
  • Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/QuiltWithPatSloan
  • Cooking group https://www.facebook.com/groups/KitchenAdventuresWithPat/
  • Instagram page  https://www.instagram.com/quilterpatsloan/
  • AND ONE INACTIVE WEBSITE for a book project - https://www.thesplendidsampler.com/
• Each banner is DIFFERENT they are not the same. One has NO photo of me. Some have OLDER photos of me so just look close and you will see i look like me with red glasses but my hair looks a little different. 

In the near future I am going consolidate all articles to IlovetomakeQuilts.

• I have over 24 years of website articles, that is a LOT of articles to have available. If you are looking for something i did put my name and the project name in Google, that is the fastest way to find it. 
• I also host and run a LOT of things. So the list of projects has gotten very long. I am going to do something different with the project list, I am just not sure what. 
• ALL of that takes a lot of time to do. I do all my own writing (with spelling and grammar errors), all my own photos, all my own video shoot, all the video set up/take down/ and video editing,  and I do all my own Website work. So if i am doing all these changes, i won't have as much time to sew for a few weeks. It is not something I can do just an hour here or there. Once i start i have to barrel on through until I'm done. 

Now onto the day!

• Chicken Salad block #9!
• What do you think of this idea based on 52 lists?

• Here are Lori's instructions using the applique templates for this block
   

  Here is a list of the

    Chicken Salad 

  Sew Simple Shapes 

  needed for the 

  PERCY Block:

  1 - M-2 

  1 - M-4 (reversed)

  2 - M-12 (reversed)

  1 - M-15 (reversed)

  1 - M-26 (reversed)

   

  all of the shapes are traced in reverse except M-2

   

  This way PERCY is facing to the left and it's super easy to trace in reverse

  by placing the SSShape right side down instead of right side up when tracing.

  You can tell if they are right side up or down by the printing on each SSShape.

   

  Straight bias strips  for the feet and beak 5/8" wide as it says in the guide
