Master Flying Geese Units with These Excellent Instructions
| May 20, 2020 | Quilting How-To
Great Info for Both New and Experienced Quilters!
Like half-square triangles, flying geese units are basic building blocks for many quilt blocks and designs. Whether you’re a new quilter or have been quilting for awhile you’re sure to find tips here to help you master them (and to save those points!).
Karen Brown from Just Get It Done Quilts has put together a very informative video. She demonstrates:
- two methods for making flying geese units
- how to adjust the unit sizes
- tips for tricky spots
- design options
- scrappy-look units
- how best to use directional fabric
- a clever trimming method
- and much more
This is an excellent overview of flying geese units that will benefit just about every quilter. Karen uses the Omnigrid 4-6-12-Inch Marking Ruler Trio for marking sewing lines.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
