TIP # 4
After sewing my block together I spray starch it and press, wait until dry and cool before removing it from ironing board. Now I square it off; DONE
Put it on your design wall and enjoy!

So it says to cut 3 1/2 inch square but really I am supposed to cut 4 inch squares? Why don't they just tell you that!?!?!

brushandthimble 03-21-2010 04:41 AM

no you need both 3.5 and instead of 3 7/8 I cut 4 inches. the 4 inches you need to cut 3 each of two fabrics to make 6 triangle squares.
you need 8 3 1/2 inch squares to make the flying geese units (4).

Does that help?

ps. I found the directions confusing so I basically cut out what works for me.

farnsworth 03-28-2010 04:47 AM

I haven't made it yet I hope to work on it tonight I have been so busy with work and sick kiddos I haven't done any sewing. I will post tonight when I get it done, I am still confused by the directions to but will give it a shot.
