Flying geese is my favorite of all the blocks and I truly love Eleanor Burns template because every block is perfect. But if I had to choose another template it would be Lazy Girl Designs Flying Geese X 4 "No Math" ruler. You can use it to make several size geese using just squares. If you've ever made geese using the rectangle and 2 squares and gotten frustrated because they look crooked, you might want to give these a try. As far as cost goes, you can't beat a Joanne's coupon--even if you have to order on line. Good luck.
