I have seen countless numbers of videos on how to make a flying geese and this is by far the best one! No fancy rulers and this works with any odd sized blocks needed. I love it! Thank you so very much from this very new quilter.
As a very new quilter, Flying Geese looked too complicated for me to tackle. Your method makes total sense to me so I know I can accomplish this. Thank you so much!!
I just wanted to thank you for your flying geese tutorial. You are an excellent teacher and your video tutorial was very well done. Each step is clearly presented and easy to follow-no confusion in your techniques whatsoever. You are a natural and I would love to see more from you. Thank you for your time and for sharing your wisdom.
Mary Hickey, This is the simplest and most accurate method for making flying geese I have ever seen. Thank you for your clear directions and thoughtful explanation. Can't wait to get started! Lindy Smith
What a fantastic tutorial, technique and quilter! You've obviously been a teacher as well as a quilter as you're awesome at both, Mary! I love your technique for creating flying geese. I've quilted for several years but I've always avoided patterns with flying geese because I just can't (soon to be "couldn't") do them right and wasted SOOOOO much fabric. With your technique I'm sure I'll be able to make them accurately and quit avoiding those beautiful patterns with flying geese! Thank you, thank you, thank you! ☺
Wow, that is one easiest ways I've ever seen to make flying geese and they come out so consistently. I love that you get so many from one set of strips too. Thanks for this tutorial :-)
Great job! I would have never thought to make them that way and its so easy!!! Thank you for taking the time to pass on some of your quilting and sewing knowledge with us here on UA-cam!!! :-)
Pure genius! Thank you for sharing this technique, especially on this block as it is a staple block and trips up so many of us! Looking forward to watching your other videos! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial. Your instructions and demonstration was clear and concise. I'm looking forward to watching more of you tutorials.
Ms. Mary, I've seen a lot of ways to make flying geese and I must say, Your's is the easiest, fastest, fun way to make them. It takes a lot of geese when your making a quilt and gets boring after a while, but it's done in at least one half the time. Thank you
Mary, i can't thank you enough for sharing the secret of how to make flying geese so fast easy and most important - accurate. my geese have been flying wonkey (self taught - and they were bad) sewing strips then cut then stager and sew and cut wow I'm going to be using flying geese in more of my future projects. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to us novices!
I’ve seen many many ways of making flying geese, but I don’t ever recall seeing this one. In fact, before you cut them through the center, that strip is going to be my border around my Irish Chain quilt which I just finished, but I love that you made little flying geese with it. Thank you, I may try that. I have to make 15 little stars for my next quilt, hence 60 flying geese so it’ll be perfect and quick. Thanks again…
Brilliant! There is no waste if you use the small triangles for another project. Hummmm, maybe small quilt wall hangings. Thank you so much sister quilter, for the best tip I have ever seen on making those pesky geese.
WOW.. This is a great way to do flying geese. I've never seen it done this way at all. Got to give it a try now I watched it. JUST FANTASTIC. Thank you Mary You are a star.
This is an amazing technique. I hope that your strong and healthy and continue to make videos like this for awhile. I felt very bad seeing your hands shake so much but I can tell you love the craft :)
great technique, great video. Now all I need to know is how to determine the size of the strips and finished units other than for the 3 inch strips. Thanks again. is this technique in any of your books?
Very nice ! You are a fantastic teacher ! I like the way you show us exactly how each step is done and you don't rush thru it like a fire is on your butt.😅❤❤❤
This a great method. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again. How do you determine the measurement for a 6 1/2" nine patch block that will be a finished 6" quilt block?
great tutorial- clear and steps well laid out. Instructions were exemplary. I believe this looks to be a very accurate and concise method. I also feel you have to waste a lot of fabric to do it. If you needed a lot of them- it might be worth it.
If your need a lot of these, with the same color background, could you just add more strips? You would need the background strips in the middle to be 3/4" or so wider to get enough for seam allowance on both sides. Do you think this would work? Now I want to go and try it out.
Nice tute and great technique Mary! But why bother with the bias cut fabric? Wouldn't this work just as well with strips cut on the straight of grain (to save time)?
Great!! Not only did I learn the easiest way to make the flying geese but also the Seminole unit. Thank you so much😀
I have been quilting for 38 years and teaching for over 20 years. I can't believe I never saw this before. LOVE IT!

Is there a way of knowing how wide to make the strips for a particular size of flying geese?
This is a fantastic way of making flying geese. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Mary!!
If your need a lot of these, with the same color background, could you just add more strips? You would need the background strips in the middle to be 3/4" or so wider to get enough for seam allowance on both sides. Do you think this would work? Now I want to go and try it out.
muy bueno,buenisimo muchas gracias
Great tutorial. If I wanted to make flying geese 3and a half by 2and a half inches. What width do the strips of fabric need to be?
Nice tute and great technique Mary! But why bother with the bias cut fabric? Wouldn't this work just as well with strips cut on the straight of grain (to save time)?
