    If you "google" flying geese quilts, there's lots of fun pictures to gleen some ideas.
    The link above shows at least 3 different sizes.

    Have fun with your project.

    That is definitely an interesting challenge to have 3 different sizes of flying geese. Remember, using the EB method, you don't need her ruler. You can make them any size you want as long as the length is twice the width. HAVE FUN !!

    how about a star within a star with in a star within a star quilt. I think the star that uses flying geese is called a variable star.
