Poor Joy - Still looking for a curved flying geese pattern... I think we talked about this a month ago. I knew you had to be the poster of this one. I Still don't know how. Let me know when you find out! And was it a circle of geese you were looking for - or curved patches geese? I have a pattern for geese in a circle...

Are you talking about flying geese in this kind of circle?

These pieces are not sewn together in this photo

No, it is not a small circle of curved flying geese but a large circle of curved flying geese... can't say what size it will be just yet... my friend is going to draft a pattern out... but we need to know how to go about it to make it curved... that is the problem...

cwessel47... what size pattern do you have?

joy 06-20-2010 07:07 PM

4 sparky.... that pattern would be helpful, thanks... can you show me where I can find that pattern please...

I draw out what I want on paper. Starting with the curves you want, then draw in horizontal lines, spacing as desired. Then decide which way you want the geese to travel, points up or down, mark the mid point, and draw in each side of the triangle. Then paper piece.

So...after you sew the geese...do you applique the strip of them down or what?

cwessel47 06-21-2010 06:00 AM

Hi Joy,
The pattern I have is for 17" blocks with a star in the center of the circle. The book is Big Book of Scrap Quilts, the pattern is called Dizzy Geese. I haven't made it but it's inching up on my project list.

joy 06-21-2010 04:38 PM

cwessel47.... who is the author of the big book of scrap quilts please? Is it a new release?

Sparky 06-21-2010 05:48 PM

No I piece them into the project. That is why you see the chalk marks on my jacket. When you draw the original curve you have a template for how to join, just add your seam allowance. I mark the seam line of the curve I want to attach on the wrong side of the fabric with chalk or very light weight fusible interfacing,

The book is published by Oxmoor House 2005. Compiled and edited by L. Amanda Owens and Patricia Wilens. Good Luck!
