Chicken Scratch embroidery



This little sweetheart is my great niece Hilary, (my niece Rohanna's daughter, and my sister's grand daughter).  
You'll see another little bit of chicken scratch on her top.  It's the same little French smock pattern that I bought from ChocolatineStudio on Etsy.  

Of course you can use any fabric for the smock, but gingham is the one for chicken scratch.  I found that the gingham squares don't always run straight, so before I cut out the pattern, I match up the squares so that when I embroider, it doesn't go downhill!
