the next step is to draw another diagonal line…you can see it better on this dot fabric…
sew a 1/4 inch on either side…
cut on the line…open it up and press….

each unit opened up looks like this…
you trim off the extra background and then cut again in the center…about 3.5 inches for this one…according to the pattern…

    Dots! I love dots! John always says, “All of our quilts should have some polka dot fabric in them.” We’re pretty close to making that true.

    I LOVE those floating geese. I have never seen them before, that I know of. I am totally interested in this project.
    Merry Christmas

    Dots make any quilt fun! Can’t wait to see where these geese end up.

    This is going to be awesome and not just because it has flying geese. I am really liking the green, blue and orange. As always, thank you for the linky party.

    Your geese are coming along nicely. I can always use dots. I love dots. LOL. I finished my last sewing project for Christmas yesterday. You have got this. You can do it. Have a very special and wonderful Christmas.

    I’ve never seen this method for flying geese before, is there a lot of waste?

    I’ve never seen this method either. I guess that’s the joy of quilting, there is always something new to learn. Merry Christmas from New Zealand, albeit a sunny, summery one (hopefully) in our case.

    I am anxious to see those colors put together. I’m done with my main Christmas sewing, but as always, I ran out of time to do some little things I’d had planned. Something else always pops up to take my time.
    Have a Merry Christmas!
