Sorry, should have said it's method B at the bottom I'm talking about - no waste! :-D

Since I have started doing my geese this way I have always had great results-and fast! Now when I have to do them a different way in my BOMs that come with little extra fabric or precut pieces, I sigh and brace for impact. Heidi

If you are cutting triangles, try starching the fabric pretty heavily. This really helps keep the bias sides from stretching :D:D:D

I agree with buzybess, El Burns method is best.
You can see a video at http://quiltinaday.com
Go to the television and video on the brown line.

I use El Burns . I was very flustrated with fg until I found her ruler.
