Chickens and placemats

I seem to be on a bit of a placemat craze at the moment! I saw this one in a magazine in a shop the other day, I would have bought it but it was an American magazine so quite expensive. So I came home and made one from my memory of the picture. I rather like it, so will have my breakfast on it today!

The placemats I get asked to make for friends are nearly always animals or birds, and far and away the most popular are Chickens! Recently I have made 10 of them and have more interest in them!Here is some inspiration, look closely at this mossy log, there are so many more colours in it than you first see.
