The Bird FPP Mug Rug

A friend at work had a disappointment, and what better way to show empathy than rage-quilting a small gift?  I found this irreverent quilt block and knew it was just the thing. The pattern was easy but came in 6 sections, so I had to do a little studying before completing ​it.  I also found it easier to color in the pieces to keep the different shades of the hand 

straight. I hand quilted in one-inch increments across the diagonal and used the pocket technique for binding, which I have found the easiest with tiny quilts like this. It took about 4 hours total, and it was worth the smile on my friend's face!
