I know many of you don't want to hear this but going down to your LQS and having someone show you what you are doing wrong can be very enlightening as Jan posted. If you use the method Tartan mentioned, you need to draw an accurate stitch line and must sew just inside the line. I prefer the EB method that luvstoquilt 301 posted. I had to make over 100 flying geese and I found this method that the geese came out perfect. You can make any adjustments when you place the trim up ruler. If a seam is just a bit crooked, you can still fix it. You don't need to buy her specialty ruler. Mark any ruler you have with the lines you use to line up the geese.
