3D Flying Geese w/curved edges with one seam!
I love making these blocks. Now I can make them any size WITHOUT doing the math!
First link shows the method. Second page shows how to make the curve edges. http://piecemealquilts.files.wordpre...e-tutorial.pdf Second link has a printable chart for cutting and sewing. Scroll down to the blue box: http://www.generations-quilt-pattern...ilt-block.html Tip...sew the raw edges together before sewing to additional blocks. (Don't ask me how I found this out.) Enjoy my quilting friends! |
Wow, I have not seen this method before! So happy you shared it, I love it!

I have watched Ricky Timms use this method. What I find priceless is the chart, thanks so much for posting this info. The cutting chart is invaluable information. I made one block doing this, it is basically no waste.

It's also called the 5 min. block. You can do the same thing with 10 in. squares. Sew 4 together and you have a faux cathedral window. Really cool and several tutes on youtube.
