American Goldfinch
This is the foundation paper pieced pattern "American Goldfinch" - This pretty bird is based on the Finches found in my home state of Indiana. This block comes together in 12 sections.
You will only receive a digital download that you can print at home. It is designed for standard US letter sized paper (8.5 x 11 inches).
This PDF has two separate patterns for each size (no scaling required!)
There are no Y seams in my patterns.
Included are:
-pattern for 12" and 15" block
-the instructions and directions on the order to assemble pieces
-a coloring and planning overview sheet, with the sections labeled
-a numbered and colored page for stress-free color design
-the numbered pattern with 1/4" seam allowance included in each section
-tips for printing and piecing
This pattern were tested by beginner paper piecers, and was given the beginner-friendly (w/ a little experience) seal of approval. The 15" will probably be easier, just because there are few little pieces.
My PDF instructions are written to be a guide during assembly, not a how-to for someone who has never done foundation paper piecing before.
