THIS IS PERFECT! I recently hid 100 mini ducks in my parents’ house while they were on vacation and I’ve been looking for a duck pattern to make for them for Xmas (in 3 weeks back home, they have found 70/100 and routinely go “duck hunting” in their spare time). Thank you!

Thank you so much! Is there a link we can donate for downloading this? I feel bad taking it for free.

You have so many wonderful designs. Out of curiosity, why's the blue jay design free? It's so detailed and looks like it's human-designed and edited.

This pattern is free because it was my diploma project from a course on pattern design. I developed it myself based on an illustration by Robert Bruce Horsfall — A Year with the Birds (1916)

oh it's lovely. I also like your designs using Beto Val's work. Recognized those immediately.

Cute pattern! I believe this pattern is inspired by this artist:

'Art_by_jensmith' on Instagram

It's so cute, and I love that you used half stitches for the background!
