Here are my flying geese for Happy Quilting's Star Surround Quilt Along. I loved the method she showed us to make these, it was so easy and quick!
I am a little bit bummed that the grain on my green fabric is running two different ways, I have thought about unpicking it and fixing my problem, but I realized that it would not matter because the grain will not match up when I make the bigger stars.
And I have two pretty birds that are still intact! I love this bird fabric so much, I am thinking that maybe I should make something else with it.
We are getting ready for school here and so I have spent a lot of time in the car driving trying to get all of the errands done and appointments. Soon enough school will start and I will be able to sew more then just once a week!!
Enjoy!
They look fantastic. So glad you like the method, but yes, it makes lining up directional fabric not so good. But you are right, once you put them in the surround they are going to get all mixed up anyways. I have never been one for worrying about directional going a certain way because it all blends when it is sewn together, well at least for me :)
