Hi all,

I'm in a frenzy, trying to complete my Christmas projects! In the name of saving time, I decided to do a pattern that I've already done in the past, but I have fewer fabrics for this project, so the blocks look different, and I'm having trouble seeing which arrangement is more attractive!!

I'm doing the Flying Geese pattern that I used for these placemats:

Ok, so I chose some really nice fabrics that match my mother's dining room color scheme, and I made up two sets to see how to arrange them. Having fewer fabrics makes this pattern look different!!

I will be putting the border strips on either side, like before, too. Which way do you like the flying geese blocks set??

Personally, I like the second one best, but they're both very pretty. I'm sure she'll love either.

#2.... I might snitch your placement pattern idea for myself after the holidays. :mrgreen: Your mom will love those.

If you don't have them done already another option is to point them all out so it looks like they are flying around in a circle. Each point points toward a different side.

Like this, Mary?

I do like that better~!

Yes. I like it better but that is just an opinion.

You are inspiring me.

Ok I won't be much help kiddo, cuz I like them both.. :oops:

I like #2 also!!

All I want to know is-What time is Dinner? :lol:

I love this idea. They are all very pretty. Would you mind sharing what size your geeses are??? :mrgreen:
