Very informative tutorial. Thanks for including and showing how to use different rulers for trimming.
Wonderful tutorial, thank you somuch , it was so helpful for me from Sri lanka 🇱🇰, God bless you .
I love the way you explain things. You speak slowly enough for people to really understand and feel confident.
The best way ever. The only way I make mine.

Awesome!!!
I love your tutorials. You speak clearly and not too fast. 😍
Thx for going slow enough for my "old brain" to keep up with you. The block lock trimmers are definately worth the $$ if you are making several flying geese. Very time saving. Carolyn
Thank you for the clear explaination ❤
Very thorough directions. Thank you!
Best video I found I only wish the frame with the formula was on a bit longer
This will be my first time making multiple flying geese at once. Your video was so helpful. Very well done and love the tips! Thank you.
Oh I prefer your way to doing it one at a time, that’s a given, thank you. Your voice is so calming and you speak so clearly. I do mine a bit differently with the “Quilt In A Day” rulers, but there is more waste than these for sure. I’m just sewing a quilt right now with 30 stars in it, 15 large ones using 3.5 x 6.5 flying geese and the smaller one than that for the next 15 stars. I will now continue doing them like you suggest here. Thank you so much. What a great tutorial.
Very nice. Thanks so much.

I don’t like making flying geese and avoid patterns with them. This looks like the answer to an easier way to make them! Thanks!
What an amazing way to save time thanks so much for sharing your video

Thanks for this method and clear instructions. I have avoided making flying geese the one at a time method as I didn’t want to have to figure out what to do with the cut off triangles or what to use potential HST’s for. The only thing I do note is that using this method is you end up with 2 that overlap in one direction and 2 in the opposite direction
Love this and Tula!! Thanks so much

Thanks for showing a selection of specialty rulers especially vs regular rulers. I only wish for a little more "math" and how yougot there at the beginning.
Excellent instructions. I was hoping you would show how to trim with a regular ruler. These specialty rulers are very pricey.
Nice tutorial!!

I am excited to try your method, I have not made flying geese blocks before. I like the Bloc loc brand but the cost is not budget friendly. I will take a look at the Creative grids line.

Good luck! Trimming can be done with regular rulers. Just take your time and line everything up! Good luck!
I just tried it out, it is fantastic but one question I have: when I sew the two small squares onto the big one, the two stitching lines make the whole thing go a bit wonky and the cutting line then ist not straight anymore, so two blocks have a bigger seam allowance than the others, anyone has the same problem? what can I do about it? thanks a lot, Dona
This is the BEST tutorial I have seen on flying geese and I have watched many!! The tips at the end of the video are great as well. You have explained EVERY detail perfectly!! Thank you so much for this excellent description!! New sub!! I only have 1 question since I have never used a pattern that calls for geese until recently.. my current pattern calls for a 3 1/2 X 2 flying geese, since the block loc's don't cut to that size and I'd like to use the next size up from that which I believe is 4 X 2 could I just trim the width to 3 1/2 without concern about the sides and maybe just trim 1/4" on each side to reach the 3 1/2" width? Not sure if the bloc loc would work in that scenario..sorry for the lengthy reply... Thanks for any help !!

That’s strange bc true flying geese are usually a 2:1 ratio, like 2x4 as you mentioned. If I were you I’d trim from the sides and then on the bottom if you need for the pattern, don’t cut into your 1/4 seam on top of your point 👍 good luck!

@@sugarstitchesquiltco Thank you, yes, the pattern I'm using is not typical of normal ratio's as you mentioned, I should have went over it very closely before buying fabric, I don't typically stray from out of the norm patterns but wasn't familiar with geese so....thank you for your guidance and help!! 😬😊
I like the added amount instead of the 7/8 addition. Does the extra little triangle in the seam at the tip get in your way? The extra layer bugs me.

No it’s not too much to cause a problem for me. I’d rather have the extra cushion for trimming! Thanks for watching!
Do you have a pdf with your quilty math for the flying geese that we can download and print?

The only problem is with some patterns the final measurement is not listed. It done with one flying geese at a time
