Flying Geese
#12
Most of us just finished the Bonnie Hunter Mystery quilt and it has 400 flying geese! I pressed up and I used my flying geese ruler by Kimberly Einmo. They came out great with no trimming.
Betty, that is a lovely quilt!

I agree with using the Deb Tucker wing clipper and pressing up towards the sky or lighter fabric. The seams will generally want to fold that way anyway and the wing clipper makes trimming very fast and accurate.

Press up and out toward the wings. If you try to press down to the large portion, you will end up with a lump of seam at the tip. I highly recommend the Wing Clipper ruler by Deb Tucker also. I always make them larger and trim for accuracy. Nothing worse than having some off square flying geese.
