Flying Geese

Combine 2 bg fabric rectangles 3 ½” x 6 ½” and 4 fabric B fabric squares 3 ½” x 3 ½” to make 2 bg/B flying geese blocks 3 ½” x 6 ½” using steps a.-d.

a. Place a fabric B square 3 ½” x 3 ½” on the right side of the bg fabric rectangle 3 ½” x 6 ½”, right sides together. Draw a diagonal line using a removable marking device on the back of the fabric B square (shown as the solid line).

b. Sew along the marked line. Trim ¼” from the seam line and press open or towards fabric B.

c. Place another fabric B square 3 ½” x 3 ½” on the left hand side of the bg fabric rectangle 3 ½” x 6 ½”, right sides together. Draw a diagonal line using a removable marking device on the back of the fabric B square (shown as the solid line).

d. Sew along the marked line. Trim ¼” from the seam line and press open or towards fabric B. Repeat to form a total of 2 bg/B flying geese blocks 3 ½” x 6 ½”.

Repeat step 1 using 4 bg fabric rectangles 3 ½” x 6 ½” and 8 fabric C squares 3 ½” x 3 ½” to make 4 bg/C geese blocks 3 ½” x 6 ½”.

Repeat step 1 using 6 fabric A rectangles 3 ½” x 6 ½” and 12 bg fabric squares 3 ½” x 3 ½” to make 6 A/bg geese blocks 3 ½” x 6 ½”.
