Tessellating Birds Pattern

This is my "Forever Project."  
It's all done by hand with English Paper Piecing.

 At my last count, I have 166 birds sewn in place.


I like to use freezer paper for my foundations.  I can iron it onto the back of the fabric, and it stays put while I baste it in place.





I sew them into groups of 4.


Then sew those groups together.




Here's a picture of a mini quilt I made with my tessellating birds.



You can get the pattern from Craftsy or Etsy.
