CRO I know exactly what you are talking about as I am making a Flying Dutchman block. That's the very problem with wanting to do the easy flying geese method. I really don't think anyone has properly answered our question here so far. I don't like doing the old fashioned, draw a diagonal line and sew on it method. That's why I wanted to use the fast way. In a way it's interesting to see no one has the way to do this but there has to be some way!!
