    Flying Geese

    Did a fab day course this week with Lessa Seigele and found a great way of doing flying geese. Made 4 different blocks and am finishing the borders now. 3 skeins down and 1 more to complete. Don't think I've chopped off any points ............... yet!

    Looks great! I am more of a pointless quilter, since I always manage to loose my points...LOL

      I love flying geese. What an interesting pattern, what's the name of it? I love how the colors are reversed giving the blocks a totally different look.

          Jane, I am always impressed by your work. And a date with Lessa Seigele made it stellar!

          it's best not to try to put it out with gasoline.

                    Flying geese and HST"s are my favorite blocks to use! Possibilities are limitless...and all with just a turn of a piece!

                          Block 3 is Aunt Sukey and block 4 is star. In 1 & 2 I have reversed the colours.

                          I used a template to get accurate sized blocks and sewed with a scant 1/4" seam
