    the chicken is a plastic canvas door stop. It is essentially a plastic canvas cover ( stitched from a pattern) around a plain old brick. Makes a great door stop.

    Thanks everyone. I used the last 2 yards of yarn left over from the skein as one of the colors in my granny square for the contest.
