Flying Geese Units

Flying geese units are fun and versatile. The units can be constructed one
at a time using templates or rotary cutting. There are several speed
techniques that involve sewing, then cutting. I like the one that requires
one large square (the goose) and four small squares (the sky.) I know how to
do those, but need the charts for cutting for certain sizes. I've looked
on-line and in my file cabinet here, and cannot find the charts. If anyone
has the link for this, please answer here and/or email me. Jeanne knows this
stuff, but is not available now. BTW: I'd also welcome link for other
methods.

Thanks bunches. Pat in Virginia

Hi Pat,

This one does not have charts but does have a simple formula. If this
isn't the one you want, I'll keep looking.

Bad form to reply to one's own post, so I'll just call this a post script!

PS: The method I mention yields four units.

The charts are in QNM September 2005. You're so right. Jeanne knows how to
access stuff like this online. Polly

Thanks Rita. My computer declined to open that, but I will save the post for
when we update our program.

R: I was finally able to see the instructions, thanks to both you and
another quilter.
So, I am off to sew some geese.

http://members.shaw.ca/BeverlysQuiltingPage/ffg.htm Fast flying geese - no
math needed. She includes a chart on the bottom of the page.

I love them. I have the book on the flying geese blocks using the ruler
that Lazy Girl Designs put out (Flying geese and more) and use it regularly.
I find it is second nature now to reach for the ruler and use it although
the first couple of times i had to put some thought into it.

Good luck.
