Well I haven't the time to get back into this right now, but I thought you all would like to see the blocks I put together last year. I did nine of them. [ATTACH=CONFIG]459518[/ATTACH]
I'm currently working on flying geese for sashing and some small eight point stars to make the quilt a little larger. [ATTACH=CONFIG]459519[/ATTACH]

Maybe later in the year I'll be able to play catch up!

I also cut my pieces at least 1/2" larger. I'd rather use a little more fabric to reduce ripping and stress!

Kaely - thanks for show us your blocks. They are wonderful. Come back any time, we will be here all year doing these blocks.

Kaely I love the flying geese!!

I have started California...I have had to re do it twice because I had the orientation wrong. This one will be interesting lol.

Hope everyone has a great Friday!!!

Love those geese! But wow, do they ever take a long time to make. I'm working on a quilt that calls for 160 and it is taking forever. (Or so it seems). It's a terrific idea instead of solid sashing.

A saw
That sawed like

Kaelyn, love your blocks. Are you also pp your Flying Geese? If I have more than 2 geese in a row they start to look drunken unless I pp them. Very ambitious--that's a LOT of geese. It will be striking.

QNS, those blocks are outstanding! I love the patriotic colors, so fitting for the pattern. Awesome job!

Great job QNS getting your blocks done before the end of the month!

If others would like to post their first 4 together, that is a great idea...we can post them at the end of each month and watch our quilts grow.
