Oopsy...this photo is not mine, it is a stock photo for that pattern...sorry. I included it hoping that it would clarify my issue.

I vaguely remembered reading a comment about this part of the pattern and the person said something about them being set in "prairie point"

I have no idea what that means.

So far I have joined 8 of the 32...I started sewing the bottom 1/2 inch that I am having trouble with first...if it is lined up properly then I sew the rest...if not then I only have to rip/curse through 1/2 inch.

this is the first thing in quilting that I am finding that I truly dislike....sad. Time for wine and tomorrow is another day.

After the birds there are 3 borders, solid cream, flying geese, then solid green.

For the FG they had me cut 3.5 inch green squares and 3.5X6.5 inch rectangles...I put a square on the end, sewed a diagonal line and cut the excess...lather, rinse repeat....

By PP do you mean Prairie Point?

So much to learn...

PP usually means "paper pieced". That is how I do them too, if
I have to make a lot. She's right - that method is very accurate

Edited to add: Forgot to say how much I like that quilt!

I love it! Your quilt is just perfect, I can't see any issues! Love it the chicks are soooo cute, the fabrics are wonderful.
Kind Regards,

LOVE this quilt... is it an original of yours? I'd love to have the pattern if I can?

Love the quilt, Very cute

Prairie points are folded squares of fabric to make triangles and they are normally more of a 3d type they are only sewn on the long straight "bottom" edge, everything else is loose. I would have however used half square triangles instead of the flying geese since you were already making them for the pinwheels! but then again thats just me I am a little lazy and know that I can sew two HST at a time, instead of having to sew one "flying goose" twice!

Will be a cute quilt when completed.

Yes Reeves...Flying geese and Praire Points are 2 totally different things. FG are usually stacked 1 on top of another when used in borders. Praire Points are usually attached to the outside edge of the quilt by sewing them together side by side (after folding the triangles), then you sew the "bottom edge" to the outside edge of the quilt. You might want to use the "search" feature on this board for the Praire Points to see what we are talking about.

Figuring out which of these you need to do will help us sort it out with you..:D:

Love your quilt! The chubby chicks are just adorable!
