:) Hi gcathie,
I have studied that flying geese block and I think I have it figured out why it floats. The background is one size and the goose piece is aproximately 3/4 the size so it floats. Cool Beans cathie! Thanks so much for showing me that.
I will check the quilt store for the simply crazy tool. I have tons of scraps that need my attention.

Hi Cathie,
Oh.... I will find that tool. LOL! I think I saw it in Nancy's notions. Where did you get yours?
I just love the way all those scraps look in the quilt. You would have never believed that they would all look so good together like that. You really did good with this set girl! Thanks for letting us in on your secret.
For some reason it reminds me of looking at the pictures of the world from outer space. I know that sounds crazy, huh?
