PATTERN: FICHY

It's a bit Fichy to me...

I always loved patterns based on the Ogee grid, but found it difficult to make my curvy lines match up at the "touch points".   I saw a new pattern by Tina Hunziker called Discolea, and was inspired to try again.  In the description of the  pattern, Linda Farmer included a tutorial on an alternate method of constructing the grid, and that's all it took for me. 

I started working the grid, and sort of flipped Tina's approach on its side.  Imagine my surprise when the little swimmers came into focus!  So, what else?  It became FICHY!
