Missy: I decided that I am going to have to buy some focal fabric. I want to do at least the full/twin and I need at least 2 1/4 yds. So.... I have some ideas that I want you to look at before I purchase them. I know that I am getting a late start, but when I finally get the fabric that I need, I will catch up. I might still take Gwyn up on her offer if she has enough focus fabric in the beautiful birds. I know that there are too many colors, but we can pick the best ones.

I am loving everyone's progress so far, I can't wait to see the quilts we end up with..so exciting!
I finished the 120 pieces for the one side, and starting to work on the 120 pieces for the mirror image( full size quilt), but here is a photo of a couple completed units.

Missy, thanks for organizing this for us. I am loving it!

Judy! Awesome, I didn't think that the 3D geese would work in this instance!! OMG! That is a great job!!! Did you cut the square to a 2 1/4? and do it that way? I like it! :) ... writing profusely for the 'betterment' of the quilt... this is why I love this place!

Georgia Girl, if you follow this link, on page 3, Missy posted how many pieces each size needs for first clue. It looks like for Queen Size you need 168 pieces for each side, for a total of 336 pieces. Check out this here:
http://mysimystery.files.wordpress.c...y-revised1.pdf

Page 3 has the number of pieces.

Ok, here is the deal, you need a total of 168 pieces finished as in a triangle in the middles of them.. I needed to 'mirror them' so we had to cut 168 per side. In this way we will have the total we need.

Missy


U need 168 squares + 168 rectangle with the /
and need 168 squares + 168 rectangle with the opossite shape of line as diagonal
U will have 336 units like gees fly in the middle
Mine and others in pade 2 this thread
Good luck
