Good day, and welcome to my blog.
When I am done with a project and don't have a new one in line, I piece units such as Broken Dishes or Flying Geese. This week it's been flying geese units, in 1800's reproduction fabrics.
I use the no waste 4 at a time method shown in this PDF. I know this is not for everyone but if I keep a scant seam allowance, my geese units turn out just fine.
Cut squares:
Piles of finished geese that will finish at 2 by 4 inches:
What blocks to put together? Perhaps Dutchman's Puzzle, finishing at 8 inches square:
Or Starlight Geese, finishing at 10 inches square:
Hmm, we'll see. In the meantime, I am sewing 1/4 to the side of drawn pencil lines, cutting units apart, and pressing the units. I will continue until I have enough for a single bed quilt. Oh, and I purchased more fabric for sashing and binding for the eventual quilt. 😉
