a macaw for Sabine - her theme: the rainforest

When I received Sabines box I recognized that a lot of space in the blue sky was left to fill in her rainforest quilt (all blocks for a quilt/theme in our challenge were attached on a linen so the next one could see what he may do. So the blocks can give a "picture").

I had choosen the blue and yellow macaw, a paper piecing pattern from Linda Hibbert from this side:

Luckily or unfortunately I had found this pattern: it was really hard work! The more I had to make the pattern smaller to fit (20 x 30 cm) which didn´t make the work easier! I blamed myself for choosing that pattern ("masochistic" was a word that came to my mind) - but now I am really, really happy with the result!
