I really will have to try this looks like a really neat technique!
|
Wow I thought I was doing good making the 4 at a time with the fancy flying geese ruler. This is fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing.
|
wow, thanks for sharing this
|
Looks like a simple way to make lots of flying geese.
|
Thanks for sharing> I needed that size to.

Thank you the explanation. I am definitely putting this on my to do list. It's amazing how math can play a part in our quilting calculations. I won't be able to test it any time soon. I have to finish half of my UFO's before I can start any new projects...my rule to myself because I got totally out of control with almost 50 of them....Got 9 done, still have 16 to go. 8 are ready to quilt. I am making great progress this year, but don't look to start anything new until 2016, if then. Happy quilting!

_______________________ For a 5 x 2-1/2" flying geese unit (5-1/2 x 3 raw size): take the long dimension and square it (i.e. 5-1/2 squared would be 30-1/4) divide that in half (15-1/8) take the square root of that (4 when you round up) add seam allowance to give you a 4-1/2" strip for the geese and a 5-1/4" strip for the sky (always 3/4" larger). So your Step 3 strips would be 4-1/2" wide ___________________ I haven't tested this though - let me know if it works for you! |
Presented like a true designer with understandable directions. I hope you continue to share your "worksheets." Thank you.

That is so great..but the math is beyond me, so will have to get my husband to help me!?!?!
|
Thank you so much!!!! This looks really good!
