Yet another quilt top from my stash... I had two yards of all of these and very little left of any of them... I have the binding already cut from the lavender... the top is 78x78
When I make the flying geese units I use the 'square' method (cut squares, sew corner to corner on the diagonal) and then make another seam before cutting off the excess - then wind up with a nice stack of half-square triangle squares already done!

It's kind of nice to dig through the stash and find stuff I had set aside for a quilt and finally getting around to getting some of them done!
Maybe my moratorium on buying any more fabric will last more than just one year!

Pretty quilt and thanks for the idea about sewing another seam before cutting the geese apart!
