Oh my gosh... that is super gorgeous! Love the binding-less edge, which works perfectly for a modern design.

Glorious! Love everything about it, but the depth of the quilting really makes it exciting for me.

What a beautiful wall hanging & a great idea for a series. Your quilting on your first one is fantastic. Lots of "movement" on it. Where are you getting your patterns for your birds?

love your Swallow Tail and look forward to more. Where did the saying
cat on a mac come from? someone mentioned it the other day on FB.
I didn't know it was a "thing". Your birds are inspiring.

Jordan, yes I paper-pieced this. I came up with the pattern myself. Enlarged a photo, then started drawing lines! I probably couldn't reproduce it, as I had to do some "realtime" tweaking of things as I went along.
