This is just a wee mug rug I made lately, from strings.
I made one more orange bird, this one facing the other way. Although I made up my own pattern, I have discovered a couple sources of patterns for birds, thanks to y'all.
Lynn at the Patchery Menagery has made a few bird quilts...hers are elegant and just lovely in her studied fabric selections and artistry. The first link is to her pattern, and please take a look at her blog, too!

The next link is to a Craftgossip pattern, which is a free one...I like the little added triangle at the bottom of the bird's breast, so I will be adding that piece to my next birdies. I would love to make some birdies each month, of different colors!!

Thank you for the links Julie
Oh how fun! Thank you Julie for the links and the inspiration. Patchery Menagery really is making some wonderful quilts with these birds. I can't wait to see more of your birds. They really brighten the day :-)
Your birdies are wonderful. Thanks for those links. Always nice to have a bit of instruction.
I saw on another blog (Sew Preeti) that the bird pattern came from Block Lotto. They are really cute.
They are in the April 2013 block lotto index
Oh those mug rugs are ADORABLE!!!
