OHHHH...YES. Eleanor Burns flying geese rulers are the way to go. I bought them after having a disaster with my Christmas quilt from last year. My flying geese made it a disaster. I could not quilt it cause it was so out of wack. It is now a table cloth. I started a horse quilt in May and it has flying geese in it and I used the EB ruler and they turned out EXACT on the money. I will even send in this photo so you can see my progress so far and how I was able to get most everything to match. Now the first two rows are sewn together but the other rows to the right are not. The blocks are sewn in verticle rows only. I am fixing to sew it all together this week. I have one more row to go along the bottom then will do my borders. But you see how the rulers really helped me.
This photo you can see the flying geese a little better.
