Ok, so that was a little corny, but in my defense, flying geese and I don't play well together. Ever. I am such a stickler for accuracy in my sewing and for some reason, I can't seem to ever get flying geese, just right.

These little flying geese are just so cute! I chickened out on the row along quilt - flying geese row, and am now sorry for that. Now I actually want to make flying geese, like all the time!
Also, have you seen It's Sew Emma's Alphabitties? They are a new marking tool that saved the day for me while laying out the fabrics I needed for the flying geese blocks. When squares are cut so close in size, I get confused and these little gems helped me keep it all organized.

And ... of course with my sweet little granddaughter, Grace Anne, just born, I had to play with the letters to spell out her name! wink.
I am having so much fun sewing each section to The Quilty Fun Sew Along! I hope you will join in the fun! Don't forget to check out the flickr page!






Oh, this is going to be an especially beautiful quilt Trish. You know I am a big fan of every one of your quilts but these blocks together are just scrumptious! Good for you for mastering those geese! *honk!* ;>)
ReplyDeleteThese are all so much fun. Love the fabrics . . . you are so creative :) I'm afraid that I am just a beginner, I haven't gotten brave enough for these yet :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so happy to hear you say that Lori's method works! I'm going to try my geese this evening. Like you, I've never had the success I hope for making neat little geese. Can't wait to try it myself.
ReplyDeleteI am still learning about quilting and never heard of flying geese, but I love the pattern.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a board full of cuteness! Your geese are especially colorful :)
ReplyDeleteYour flying geese look great. I so know what you mean, that is why I do not make them that much. I bought Lori's book so I am going to have to look them up.
