Hi! I am looking for a pattern for this hen and chick doily made about 60ish years ago. Please visit here to see the picture. It's adorable and I would love help sleuthing out the pattern! Thank you, Kristen

That is so adorable. I have seen the 3-d Swan doily but I have never seen this hen and chicks doily. I hope someone can help you find the pattern.

This doily is so cute!

So far, all I have found is a C'Ville post back in 2006 with a link to the hen and chick she made and attached to a doily. In post #19 she writes "it is from a old magazine". I don't know if she is still a member but, it would be worth a shot to send her a private message.

I will keep my eyes open and maybe someone else will remember the pattern source.

Wow, that is an incredible doily. I hope that you find the pattern.

Thank you for your help in searching out this pattern. It is very much loved and so I imagine if the original pattern cannot be found, some clever person can re-create it. There seems to be a lot of people interested in making it.
