96 Geese - a - Flying!

Know When To Stop!


Ok! So I got a bit carried away with these tiny flying geese, but they were so much more fun than foundation piecing somehow. They are no harder to make than larger units, it's just that they don't go so far. They are so sweet and finish at 1 inch by half an inch!








I was in my element and stuck with it all day, but eventually called it a night at 96. 
Today I have made them into a little border for the Halo Block.







Then I joined my Dresden Bloom blocks into pairs to be trimmed down to the same size as the curved flying geese. This was not as simple as I thought it would be because I had to part unpick the appliqued quarter circles to tuck the inset triangles underneath. So the join is a bit messy, but I think I can hide that with some clever quilting. 


Now I have to build up from the centre outwards to meet that border. 

Back to the school of make it up as you go along!!


Happy Quilting Everyone!
