I found out that they are called Migrating Geese or Staggered Geese. Omak has a post on here that shows how to do it. You cut two squares of background and one square of "goose" Cut the goose square on the diagonal corner to corner. Sew one triangle to one square RST with a 1/4 inch seam on the two sides that match. Do the same with the other square and trangle. Now cut the resulting piece on the diagonal the other direction, cutting through the triangle. You have four very oddly shaped pieces. Sew them together to get the migrating geese as in the picture. Take one of the pieces apart and sew the small triangle to the bottom and the larger triangle to the top. This gives you an edge you can sew onto something else.
