Wow, these are fun!!
However, I need to make them smaller and can't figure it out! I was thinking half the size so the squares would be 1.5 inches but how do you halve 5.5?? You don't get an even number. And I need more coffee..... that problem I can solve lol Thanks for any help!! Sue |
I have had my coffee so the answer is....5.5/2=2.75 or 2 and 3/4 in.

You can make the One Seam Flying Geese in any size using the following formula:
Size of squares = 1/2 inch larger then the desired finished height of the overall unit. Height of rectangle = same as the squares you cut. Width of rectangle = width of the squares times two minus 1/2 inch. In other words, if you cut 2" squares you would cut the rectangle 2" x 3.5" Aren't I smart? NO. I found this info online. LOL |
Hubs just came in with a Starbucks- biggest size :D
Sometimes my stupidity baffles me- thanks, friends!! |
Thanks for the toot.....you have no idea how long I spent trying the same thing. And I am a reasonably intellegent person.
