    Made my first flying geese, now I am supposed to join the geese to form the 4 strips that will be the border...except that they are NOT making nice clean pointy triangles.....

    The cream is the base triangle with a smaller green triangle on each side...they are joined with the cream on the bottom...so the green triangles should form a new larger triangle...but mine are not lining up properly..............

    VERY frustrating.

    Any ideas?

    Try matching the green points first.

    Which points are getting cut off??? The little green ones on the side? How did you make the FG? I pp mine, especailly when I'm making long runs for borders. When I do them that way I always have perfect points on each one.
    Can you post a pic of what is happening? The quilt is darling and the FG will be sooo cute!!
