When I sewed the Flying Geese part, first I sewed one of the blocks on, then trimmed it (to 1/4 in) and then pressed it out. Then I sewed the second block on (and trimmed it and pressed). You will see that the outer pieces overlap and the "point" is approximately 1/4" from the edge. When you sew that piece onto the center square, the overlapped part will be inside the seam and the "point" will just touch the seam line. Or at least that it how it is supposed to work!!!

Very nice California!!!

Zoo, so sorry about your son's broken ankle, hope it heals fat and you don't have too many ringing bells to answer!! When my daughter got her wisdom teeth out someone gave her a bell to ring thinking it would be funny to summon the mother maid..my daughter used it!!!

Yes, I am doing apinwheel in the Quilted Rooster Swap...branching out from the applique...and Luna will probably be my first guinea pig since she is one of my block recipients for may and she already has an applique from me!

Beautiful blocks, Cindy!

Elven, I struggled with the flying geese at first, too! I'm so glad everyone on here was able to help you out!

Eleven take a step back then take a deep breath and relax. You will get it figured out. I have found some times the best thing to do when you are have trouble is to just walk away for a little bit.
