I've seen Ricky Timms method of "one seam flying geese" too & love it.

Since I found Patchpieces method I've never used anything else. Very fast and no waste what so ever.

I'm unfamiliar with this method, and didn't find it in an internet search. Can you describe how it works?

My favorite (for now) is Deb Tucker's Wing Clippers and I do like Ricky Timms one seam method, guess it depends on the day.

Have you tried the BlocLoc rulers? They are brilliant for trimming down your flying geese. Come in many sizes.

I like the one seam flying geese , very versitile. And I also like the square in a square ruler and with it you make 2 and once.

Thank you! I do know that method, as it turns out. I just didn't recognize it by the name "Patchpieces method".

I like this method or the one shown on connecting threads tut...Eleanor Burns taught the method on connecting threads many years ago.. I like methods that lets you make different size geese and both of these do.
I have not seen Ricky Timms method.. How or where do you find his?
I am always looking for new, quicker, and more accurate ways of doing things.
