TDITM March: French Hen

If you are participating in my Twelve Days in Twelve Months sewing challenge to complete one Twelve Days ornament a month, it’s time to tackle the third pattern: French Hen!

Add a photo of your completed ornaments in the comments of the pinned Facebook post, or tag your Instagram post with @mmmcrafts and #twelvedaysin12months to share your progress! (Please, no photos of my pattern pages.)

Shown above: Green/red French Hen made with **Felt On The Fly** felts and Pink/burgundy hen made with **Benzie Design** *(I don’t have a color guide for that one, but it is similar to **this**.)*

Oui, let’s sew, mmmakers! For mine, I will be swinging back to the mustard/copper end of my palette for this one (similar to the Partridge & Pear you see above), because I’m alternating between color schemes each month. I will end up with a half and half set which I hope will 1) look great and 2) be right in my daughter’s color wheelhouse. Fingers crossed!

Buy the French Hen pattern if you don’t have it yet. (Or if you need the whole series, the 1-12 bundle is the best discounted price and contains bonus materials!) Gaie broderie!
