Is there a quick easy way to make flying geese with 2 different color wings? The specific colors have to stay on the same side.
I use the four at once method and love it, but it would make 1/2 the colors on the wrong side of the wing.

I would make HST then put two together to make the geese with correct color on each side.

Have you seen Ricky Tims one seam flying geese? It is 3D but you could sew down the goose if you wanted to.

I use the rectangle with 2 squares placed on each corner, sew the diagonal seams and trim off the corners. You can use 2 squares the same colour or 2 different colours.

Thanks for the replies. I hate sewing on the bias because I mess it up every time. Tartan I wil give you method a try.

That's what I do. I call it the "old fashioned way." For the diagonal seam I draw the line and sew on it. If the squares are small enough, I use the line marked on the bed of my machine just in front of the presser foot to guide the point of the block.

If sewing on the bias is a concern to you, then paper piecing your geese, may be the route to go.
No fears with bias ... and perfectly sizes and shaped geese, with ever so nice points on them!

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!!

This is the method I use the most..

I PP flying geese all the time, no matter what size. Just easier for me.
