Thank you all for the sweet comments on my Benjamin Biggs quilt. I wish I had the time to reply to each one of you personally! I really do appreciate you taking the time to read and comment!
Making the Wabash Co quilt will require quite a few flying geese. In my opinion this is the way to make a lot of them. Kathy didn't remember doing this technique, but while I was visiting Ohio she cranked them out like nobody's brother! I thought I'd show it briefly to refresh your memory.
Press toward the larger triangle.
Press and trim! Ta-da!
Now to find some time in my sewing room!
We went to a mid week concert! It was better than I expected.
The night was closed out by REO Speedwagon. They are all getting old, but they
can still rock and play the guitar like crazy.
Here's my Instagram feed for the week.
Have a fantastic weekend!!
I love flying geese, thanks for the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever tried that method before. Very interesting! Always wished we'd have made it to an eagles concert.😊
ReplyDeleteI like that method a lot and find it pretty accurate. We saw Styx when they played at our County Fair and enjoyed the concert. Yes they are all getting old! The first album I ever bought was an Eagles one!
ReplyDeleteWow! This looks even faster than my square in a square method. I'll give it a try. Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the concert.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial! I needed this for my plaid quilt border!!!! Next time I will have it. Glad you had fun at the concert, those are some of my favorite groups.
ReplyDeleteHey girlfriend, thanks for the chart for different sizes! I did like making the geese that method. There will be many more geese containing quilts in my future since you showed me how easy and accurate theyare with this method. Miss my quilting pal already!
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I have used this method, but I have pinned the chart. Hopefully next time I have a bunch of flying geese to create, I will remember to give this a try, with the help of your photos. I am such a visual learner, I often don't even attempt new methods unless I see them demonstrated.
ReplyDeleteIt's my favorite method. I never can get them to turn out good using any other method.
ReplyDeleteGreat way to make Geese! It changed my whole POV about using the block. Cool concert!
ReplyDeleteWhat is the strange creature upper left corner of your Instagram feed? I hope it s not a bug!!!?
Great techique, my friend! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the flying geese tutorial and for posting the cheat sheet source. Always good to know this method when making flying geese. HUGS... and stitches
ReplyDeletep.s. I have up, my little patriotic quilt that "I WON!" from you! It says 2010 on the label. Has it really been 7 years?!? Again, thank you so much for it! Still love it!
All those groups in ONE concert? That sounds amazing! Did it go really late??? ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder of the flying geese technique. there are so many.
I recently did some using the ruler Wing Clipper and they came out great!
