Oh Karen! This is what I needed. I am having such trouble with my new, otherwise lovely Janome, eating the points of my geese. There has been cursing, there has been wine, there have been threats to send machine back to the dark storeroom! Now I will snip the point. I already watched this when it first came out but didn’t perhaps have the same issues. I knew I could rely on you xx

It's been 3 months since you made this video, but it just showed up on my KZread stream today! By sewing from the back, you've solved the problem of not having the 1/4" seam allowance needed at the top of the goose! I looked on line and in books for days to try to figure out what I was doing wrong and how to correct it. That problem held up my quilt till now when you solved it with this video.. THANK YOU!

After fussing with the geese that weren’t flying at all, I decided to get on you tube for help. This was the first video to pop up! LOVE your simple methodology to making (4) at a time. And NOW my geese have the extra fabric on top so I don’t lose my point when sewn together. THANK YOU! 😊 You made my frustration disappear.

Hi Karen, I just finished listening to your blog about your progress on your paper piecing project, and making BLUE QUILTS!!! I keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Thank God for the good news for your son, what a HUGE relief. I'm glad that you showed us that every time you went in to sew you ended up doing other things. It happens to me often also. But in the end it helps me get mentally ready for my next thing. What ever that is. I feel better after I've done some of these non-sewing things. Karen, I think you need a mental health break. You go at things so hard. Can you and a friend or 2 go have a weekend away? Just go poking around some odd little stores. Maybe just take yourself out for some poking around and some lunch. Where you sit DOWN to order, bring a new pattern to go over or a book. Just leave in the morning, knowing you have dinner set for the guys at home. ( I think you said your husband cooks) and walk around after lunch, read your book and do NOTHING MORE THAN WHAT CAN HELP YOU, KAREN HAVE A SIMPLE DAY FOR YOURSELF. I admire you very much, long before your world got turned upside down. You need to take a few breaks, I'm saying this because of the change in you. You are a wonderful person, your style of teaching is very coherent, like you've been a teacher your whole life. But now you're pressed, I want the best for you and your family. One day I'll write why I started to quilt. I hope that all of you stay safe from this Covid 19 and your son continues to get better. May God Bless you and your family, Debbie

Just Get it Done Quilts the after quilt is such a great idea. And "mini" geese make it that much more interesting.

I've read and watched dozens of how-to guides on the flying-geese block. NONE of those other educators addressed how to "elevate" your cutting to produce successful flying-geese designs. This video explains so much. It was perfection. I'll never need to (or want to) watch another video on the flying geese block. Thank you, Karen. You're the best.

One has to be VE-E-E-R-R-Y careful when walking to and from the capitol building and over to the memorials built along the shore of the pond to avoid all the goose crap on the lawn and sidewalks. I may never sew another FG without thinking about this ;) .

A must watch for intermediate and/or a beginner quilter. First time I’ve ever seen such detailed design info shared in such easy to follow & professional way as this video. See how FG block construction can create a focal point in any block. Adjust alignment of print pattern or rotation within stitch placement will alter the block and get that “WOW factor” in your quilt. Use prints that are: One way, rotational, stripes, mirror image, etc. some fabric print options. You will never automatically avoid a print, ever again. Tons of visual examples! Bonus: How to make a trimming tool for FG using blocks you may already own.

Loved the part of your tutorial about fabric choices and fussy cutting motifs to feature in Flying Geese blocks! Definitely a new way to look at how to incorporate your geese into your project. When you covered the basic methods for making FG units, I was surprised you didn't also show what I like to call (and use) the "Two Squares Method". I learned it through Eleanor Burns (and officially known as "Triangle Pieced Rectangles"). I had used all the methods you show until I found this one which I love because it means less cutting and fewer seams to sew. It's also a "make larger and square to size" method so helps in making sure there is adequate seam allowance above the top point. However, as you point out, if I'm fussy cutting or require strict color placement, then other methods need to be employed. Becky from Patchwork Posse demos it here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6R5yLyidJm9pLw.html
