Flying Geese - yet another method

I came across this method of making a flying geese block... works well for a small piece of work, not so sure that I would want to use it for a large quilt but most definitely worth a look:

That's a neat way of doing flying geese that I've never seen before. Thanks for the info.

I like to use this method as it is fun and fast; just know that you will have extra bulk when quilting. Not a problem with machine quilting on a domestic home machine, though. I also like the extra dimension that it adds. And it's a great substitute for Prairie Points.
