Free Bird and Animal Patterns

Wow! Can you believe how many patterns I have posted on this site? I know that I can't.

In an effort to make life easier for all of us, I am going to try to simplify the pattern lists for everyone. I have found many patterns along the way that I did not have a link to, so this exercise has definitely been worthwhile.

Please find a list of patterns related to Birds, Bugs, and other Cute Animals along the way. Each of these patterns would be the perfect embellishment for a card, scrapbook page, or framed art. Contact me if you have questions:

• Patriotic Lady Bug - This little lady is all Red, White, and Blue. Just think out-of-the-box and she can be the colour of the flag of your country.
  
• Happy Song Birds - These song birds have been added to a painted background, with quilled blossoms to make this tree come alive.
  
• Pink Flamingo - You cannot think of summer without thinking of a Pink Flamingo. This is a folded rose version that has been mounted to a photograph.
  
• Butterfly and Dogwoods - This is a perfect combination, a Spreuer Butterfly perched on a beautiful picture of a Pink Dogwood. This includes instructions and a link to the actual photograph so you can make the entire project on your own!
  
• Teardrop Butterfly - This butterfly is made using standard marquis and teardrop shapes. You can change the color scheme to match your card or just your mood!
  
• Thanksgiving Turkey - Gobble, Gobble! He is ready to join your Thanksgiving feast.

Birdhouse Theme:

• New Home Birdhouse - Home Sweet Home birdhouse magnet that you can attach to a card and welcome someone to their new home.
  
• Lovey, Dovey, Birdhouse - A sweet birdhouse filled with love for any occasion.
  
• Kissing Birds Birdhouse - Two S-Scroll birds are kissing on their birdhouse.
  
• Winter Birdhouse - A winter theme birdhouse.

Free Quilling Pattern Lovey Dovey Birdhouse

Today's free quilling pattern is a heart filled birdhouse that I like to call the "Lovey Dovey Birdhouse." I gave this card as part of a housewarming gift.



This is done in a very perky Spring-like design and is done in a style that I like to call "adornment quilling". Adornment quilling on this project refers to the fact that I have added quilling to my paper pieced birdhouse embellishment.



If you are new to quilling, please click to learn the basics of quilling and to learn to make the basic quilled shapes that are assumed you know how to do in creating many of these designs.

I simply cut a 1.5 inch x 2 inch yellow rectangle and added a pretty pink roof. For added design, I added a strip of pink in the center to make this a 2 story birdhouse. I glued these elements in place before I added the quilling.

Starting at the roof-top and working our way down, this is what I've done.

Roof:

• 3 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) teardrops
• 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) tight coil
• 2 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) loose coil (like a quotation mark)

Second Floor:

• 2 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) open hearts
• 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) tight coil
  

Middle Level:

• 2 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) S-Scrolls
  

First Floor:

• 2 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) open hearts
• 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) tight coil
  

Add this to your Valentines Day card for a special child or loved one. If you are a scrapbooker, this is a perfect embellishment for your page. The great part about all of this is that it isn't too bulky so it won't make your page too lumpy.

Enjoy!
