I know it's after the fact...sorry...but I've been using a program I bought at the LQS called "Triangulations", by Brenda Henning. It's like paper piecing them. There are different sizes of geese and HST's. It has helped me a lot. I'm working on a BOM project that has 92 geese in it, and there's very little fabric waste. You use triangles cut to the right size and because it's paper piecing, you don't have to worry about the bias edges. You might look into it if you plan on another project with flying geese.

Just this past weekend I gave in and tried the Deb Tucker Wing Clipper ruler and made some of the best flying geese units I have ever made - seriously - plan to go buy my own ruler this week. Makes four at a time a little oversized then you trim them down to the right size. Worked really well!

Yeah, that is the Ricky Timms one! Let us know how that works out. That is the one I think will work for me.

When I do the folded corner method I sew on the right side of the line instead of right on the line. Then when I trim I only trim out the center triangle. That way the rectangle I cut is still the perfect size and if the folded corners are just a little off it doesn't matter.

I bought her Wing Clipper ruler but haven't tried it yet. I bought it because I made her Rapid Fire Hunter's Star quilt and it came out wonderfully using her ruler for it. Look at her video's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7WQpzknLGg&lr=1

I use Eleanor Burns rulers and they come out perfect every time.

Glad you saw that "one seam flying geese". I watched it and although I haven't done it yet, sure looks simple. I'm always amazed at the short cuts I find either on You Tube or from this board.

Try paper piecing them. Takes the frustration out it. Here is a link of different sizes you can try.

I've tried pretty much every method, but was never happy with my geese until I tried Deb's Wing Clipper ruler. Using her method and ruler, mine were pretty darned close to perfect!
