I was trying to get a side view, and when playing with the contrast of the picture in my photo editing software, I happened to notice a black faced bandit in an area I normally crop out... so instead of increasing the contrast to compensate for the flash, I decreased it to reveal (eeek!) a SPY.
Think she's hearing very important secrets straight from the beak? Or perhaps wondering if she can flip him over and find a turkey leg under there?
I stuffed him with dried peas, so he's more of a beanbag, not a pincushion, and pretty heavy! I haven't decided on a name yet, not Tom, that's totally expected. Any suggestions?

I think you may have mistakenly made a cat toy, judging by the photo!
This was a really nice twist on the chicken. Love it. A name for the turkey....what about Tod the turkey.
Oh, the turkey turned out really well - wonder how easy kitty can toss it across the room? heh heh heh.
So, did kitty swat the turkey?
"Gobbler" Also totally expected!
never can take the hunter out of a cat huh :-) Love the idea of a turkey pincushion... I may try a peacock with a tail like that!
Now isn't that adorable!!! I want one!!! :D And how cute that your kitty got in on the act! I like Aby's suggestion--Tod.
I was gonna suggest Lori... but yeah, Tod sounds good. :)
Very clever, and fun. For a name - I think your cat has already named it Mai Toi.(my toy)
Oh that is just too cute :) Great job! As for a name well I just call all my turkeys SUPPER hehe :) xoxo melzie
Wow, cute! I usually call my turkeys: Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Enchillada! :)
what a great way to use up your scraps from the Leaf quilt. Great idea making a turkey instead of the usual chicken.
What a cute little turkey - and a cute little bandit too! LOL How did you make him? I'm going to have to hunt up the pattern.
Great blog, I'll be back again soon!
Very cute and creative.
This is just the nicest thing about blogging and exchanging ideas - your turkey came from other peoples chickens and quiltpixie is now thinking about a peacock - I love all the interaction and your turkey is terrific - what about Timothy or Tyler? or even Trevor? :o)
Love that turkey tail! I'd be watching him though, as he could end up as a cat snack...
With the beans making "tom" heavy he would be a good block weight - I have to put things on my blocks to keep the cats from rearranging them! Though from the photo putting tom there it may only be an incentive to play!

That is adorable!!! What about Turkey Lurkey? Is that from the chicken little story?
Your turkey is so cute!
Wonderful adaptation!
Oh how neat is that?!? I love it! I've been wanting to make myself one of those chickens as well...but, hmmmm...now I'm thinking TURKEY! :oP Very creative!!
oh I know that the cats thought you made them just for them to play with! Too cute.
Oh he's just adorable!!!
Hi Jane, what an adorable pair those 2 are..LOL
And what a hoot to catch her(?)him(?) in the corner of the picture. I think they'll be very good friends. Anything resembling chicken I suspect..*VBS*
A name for the bird...hmmmmmmm?
It turns out so well with that fancy tail..and leave it to you to be sooo creative. Hugs, Finn
How cute and what a great idea .. to stuff him with peas!

I just love your turkey!! Is it a boy or a girl? Think you said 'he'.... If he's interested in a date, Click the Chick is available. :)
I love it. A brilliant ida!
And keep him away from the flowerpots. You dont want him to get wet.
Oh he is adorable! I love him!
