I’ve been itching to make a new thread drawing image & finally had an opportunity & the inspiration to make it happen! I love to watch chickens strut around – their group dynamic cracks me up. I thought it would be fun to try my hand at a drawing one – & it was a rooster that finally made it on to the canvas. When thinking of a song to go with this image (because there is always a song to go with my images)- of course Dan Zanes popped into my head. All Around the Kitchen was on replay often for awhile in our house & we tend to dance around a lot like this on a daily basis.
I was looking through all of my children’s books for chicken reference pictures & Henny Penny was top on my inspiration reading list- however, I ended up using a picture of a Rhode Island Red Rooster as a reference in the end because my husband is from Rhode Island & it seemed to speak to me. After about 6 chicken drawings in thread, I was finally happy with one. Sayer’s love of red is what helped me choose the tee color. I guess you could say it’s a sort of a rooster fire firefighter as far as he is concerned.
And there you have it, the new klt:works rooster tees are finished & in the shop! Now let’s dance!

14 June 2012There's so much attention to detail! I still don't know how you draw with your sewing machine, it's really unbelievable. These photos are terrific (as always!) and you look really really fab Kristin. : )
