Love Flying Geese Book


Happy Thursday! Today I have a new book to share with you! It's called Love Flying Geese and it's a compilation of flying geese projects from Love Patchwork & Quilting Magazine, published by C&T Publishing.

You'll find 27 projects in the book featuring flying geese blocks, including one of mine! Gaggle of Geese is a simple throw quilt featuring two sizes of flying geese. It's fat quarter friendly and comes together quickly! You may recognize this quilt from my Geese in Flight pattern, which has additional sizes of the same design.

It was first featured in Issue 3 of Love Patchwork & Quilting, on the cover. I still remember finding out it would be on the cover, such a fun memory!


I used the Urban Mod collection by Art Gallery Fabrics for this quilt, along with their Pure Solid in Snow.

As I'm sure you can guess that I quilted this one myself. Free-motion quilting is not my strong suit, but I can quilt a pretty decent doodle-loop!


You can find my project on page 33 in the book!


You'll find instructions for a little matching mini quilt too!


Also included in the book is my technique focus on flying geese. You'll find detailed instructions for both the traditional method of making flying geese and also the four-at-a-time method. Plus math formulas for making any size geese!


There are some really great projects featured in this book, a few I'd like to make too! Be sure to check out the rest of the book tour to see the other projects included:

  5. If I looked in my sewing room, I might find that issue. I remember your quilt and how I liked it back then. I believe I went to JoAnn Fabrics and bought that issue so I could have it. I won't swear to it, but I recall your quilt for sure.

    I still like it and the fabrics you used.
