Very nice K! Love the colors and your applique is always perfect! Great job! I'll have to check out the flying geese method you mentioned.

Those are so pretty Kathryn. I can't remember if you made the pillow before? Your mother is going to love this gift. You have such a talent.

I made them a set of 5 last Christmas - before I was on the board so I've never shown them here. The applique on each is different but similar - I don't have pics of all of them, I'll take some next time I go round there.

Re the geese - Vicki - it worked really well, since I wanted 4 borders and the fast method makes 4 identical ones at a time. I had no trouble with the points or anything which is NOT normal for me! :D
