NWOT Counted Quilts Football Bird 3 sizes in 1 pattern by Lisa Muilenburg 2014

How to Make Counted Quilts These quilt patterns are a quick and easy way to make an adorable character without appliqué or panels. Only straight cutting and straight seams! First, rotary cut the given fabric yardage into 1-3 sizes of strips for each color. Second, cross cut those strips into the given number of pieces. These will be alphabetically labeled and set aside. Third follow the full page color labeled image to sew the pieces together piece by piece, row by row. It is really fun to watch the image emerge line by line, like putting a puzzle together.
