Beautiful block and quilt! Great tutorial Vickie. Thank you for explaining the flying geese ruler. All those lines can be very confusing and you explained them perfectly.

Thanks Angela, it's pretty easy when you can see how it works

As the 4x method has bias on the outside (v. other methods of HST construction) mind the handling of the edges. If I were to duplicate the block in a quilt (and it is so beautifully charming), I would use the 8x method for the HSTs. I will definitely make this block and have saved it. Thanks so much for your demo. I have another brand FG ruler...I would recommend any to get a multi sized FG specialty ruler such as yours, and use this method (no waste) which is the MOST effective way to have 100% perfect geese. A production tip (from my personal sweat shop) when trimming: Make the first round of cuts and place to side. Rotate the entire pile and make the second round of cuts. Even with a spinning mat, you are making 1/2 of the turns in the piece. Helps when you have hundreds to contend with.

Great advice! Thank you so much. I haven't yet had to make 100's of flying geese but I'm sure they're in my future somewhere.
