I'm sure there must be a way to cover a sphere, but your pattern

too. But You surely know that you can aproximate a sphere by n
equal-sided triangles, where n are some discrete numbers...

I don't know if it will work, to take 2 of these triangles
together, but maybe you can get your' penrose tiling this way to
the sphere ...

hmm ... quite hard to explain, hope you know what I mean...
