    I so enjoy your teaching method. re geese blocks: I found out the hard way (by un-sewing) that I needed to sew just to the side of the diagonal line, not directly on it. You are the first teacher to point that out to students. Thank you, Janet in Houston

    When I make flying geese I mark a second line a half an inch towards the corner. I then sew on both lines and cut between the two seams. That way I have two half square triangles made from what would have been waste. Another great tutorial!!

    I’ve been looking into making a bunch of flying geese and unlike what you mentioned, everyone says the f.g. Block’s height should be half the width of the rectangle, yours wasn’t and wondering what is the difference in them. I see yours turned out okay, but I see that “rule” all the time. Anyhow, I guess it doesn’t make much of a difference. Th you for the tutorial.

    HELP. I am just learning how to do flying geese and I am not sure what i am doing wrong. Mine seem to be as they should be and I keep the point at the top fine with the 1/4” seam allowance but I am not sure how to keep the other 2 points when the blocks are sewn together. When I watch this video of the joined blocks it seams to me that there is a gap at the bottom between the goose and the sky which mine don’t have so when I join them together I loose the point. 😢sorry if I am being a bit dense but any help would be apreciated
