The Perfect Flying Geese

The Perfect Flying Geese

Welcome back to Quilt Block Mania Tuesday! This month’s theme is all about “Drinks”, and I couldn’t resist putting a different spin on it with the Grey Goose Quilt Block. Inspired by the iconic flying geese design, this block has been a favorite of mine since 2015, when I first created it for a mini quilt swap. This block pattern will help you make perfect flying geese! Click here to get the pattern.

Whether you’re a modern or traditional quilter, the Grey Goose block is a versatile addition to any sampler quilt. But why stop there? This block can stand alone to create a stunning quilt all on its own.

Make 16 grey goose blocks and put them in one fun and modern quilt top

Block Technique

The block uses paper piecing which created perfect flying geese. If you’re new to paper piecing, don’t worry! It’s a technique I love because it is an easy way to get beautiful results. And once you get the hang of it, it’s a breeze. Need a refresher? Check out my blog for a quick guide on how to paper piece.

But here’s the best part: for the entire month of March, the Grey Goose Quilt Block is free for you. After that, it will be available for purchase in my shop.
