Southwest Breeze. Disappearing Quilts made with Flying Geese Blocks.

The finished quilt is 45" X 45"
Fabric Requirements:
Yardage:
1 3/4 Yards White
7/8 Yards Orange
7/8 Yard Teal
To see how to make 2 Half Square Triangle Blocks from one light and one dark, check out this segment from my first disappearing video: • Disappearing Hourglass... (This video uses 6" squares, but the method is the same for 5 1/4" squares.)
This is the second in my Disappearing Flying Geese series. Here is the other one. • 3 Quilts from 1 Easy B...

Alternating 4 block motif is my favorite, but thank you thank you for all the suggestions. Bless you Miss Brita.

[@QuestioningQuilter]

I really liked that layout as well. Thanks for letting me know how much you like it. Thanks so much for watching.

[@anngriffith7932]

This might your best disappearing quilt block yet! Look forward to more…

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Wow, the best yet! Thanks so very much. But now the pressure is on to do even better. 😉😎

[@maryseaman312]

There are two reasons I was attracted to quilting: the angles and the colors. I totally enjoy all your work! This design is a great expanse on the disappearing four patch. You have increased my enjoyment of angles and colors exponentially with all your applied math. Thank you!

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Thank you so much for all the kind words. I am so glad that you enjoy the designs.

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Thanks. It is amazing to me how switching to just two colors can change the quilt so much. It really emphasizes the graphical aspects of the design.

That’s really pretty. I like the last design with the zigzag wave. I think that pattern would be beautiful in earth toned batiks. Thank you!

I like #1. It reminds me of the old wooden forts. The 2 colour layouts remind me of Scandinavian knit sweaters. You have a great imagination

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Thanks for letting me know that you like that version. It always makes me feel good to know that people like the alternate designs. I hadn't though of it, but you are right about the Scandinavian knits. It might make a nice sweater design.

[@kathyweverka4335]

I think this would look really great in southwest colors. Gonna fool around with the colors..I'll send you a picture. Like the spiraling tip. I'd seen it done, but couldn't quite figure out what was going on. With Christmas coming up, a 6 week break will probably be required. Thanks for your tutorials, really enjoy your approach. Quick & easy to follow.

[@QuestioningQuilter]

I would love to see your version. Thanks so much for offering it. I am glad you like the spiraling tip, I debated on including it. Thanks so much.

Ooooo I can imagine this scrappy, where you pair up 4 random fabrics, make the original flying geese, cut them apart, but don’t pair them with the 9 patch blocks you used to disappear the block. Another one of your quilts on my bucket list! Thank you!

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Wow! That sounds amazing! I get excited when people take one of my ideas and go even further. Yay! I would love to see this quilt if you get the chance to make it.

[@crazyquiltpatcher]

These are great designs. I would be hard pressed to pick my favorite, each of them have great visuals. Thank you.

[@QuestioningQuilter]

I agree, I cant tell you how many hours I spent going back and forth trying to decide on which design I wanted to use. I ended up pestering all my friends getting their opinion and even they were split. LOL.

Your favorite is my favorite too. Years ago, I was on a hunt for a good southwest style quilt pattern and I ended up making up my own. But this would be a great option for next time. I would love to see it with turquoise and burnt orange on a tan background.

[@QuestioningQuilter]

I think a tan background would look great. I don't use the light color backgrounds because in the thumbnails, they look very washed out, so I stick with white. Please send me a picture if you make this. Thanks so much!

Hats off to your grandson! I see a future in design and quilting for him! Love this tutorial!

Thank you so much. He is a really talented kid. He made a Quilted Pillow last year as a Christmas present for his mom. He Designed it, sewed it and even free-motion quilted it. He didn't know that you are supposed to be afraid of free motion quilting. Can't tell that I am a proud grandma. 🤣🤣

[@QuestioningQuilter]

I had the hardest time deciding between the two. Half of my friends voted for that one and the other half voted for the rows. I would love to see the results of your experiments. I bet the color choices could tip the balance to one design over the other.

[@BrendaH289]

I think it looks like little houses w/trees and a moon…

Hi Brita, you did it again, you are brilliant and wow what a great new disappering block. The pattern reminds me for something like nativ folks pattern and I amagine it in brown and turquoise.

Love your approach and ideas! If I get around to trying this disappearing block I will attempt to lay out the blocks so each one is rotated 90 degrees for a line of 4. I suspect you tried this and it didn't please you at all, but that you made the video with what did please you. Keep up the good work, and thanks for the closeup of swirling the seams. I have never seen a video that bothered to get in close, so I have never understood the process. All the best with your October "stuff.:"

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Actually, I didn't try making one row horizontal and one row vertical. That sounds like a fantastic idea. I am not able to try every possible layout so I am glad when creative viewers like you suggest additional designs. That will probably look really good. Keep giving me great suggestions!

[@QuestioningQuilter]

Don't worry Franki, I will help you if I can. The most important thing to remember that 4" X 4" squares will NOT make 4" HST's. Because of the seam allowance the HST will be almost 1/2" smaller than the original square. So: I use a 4" square to make a 3 1/2" HST. I use a 5" square to make a 4 1/2" HST. I use a 5 1/2" square to make a 5" HST. 1/2" is all you have to remember. The HST will be about 1/2" smaller than the squares. I always trim to make it exact. VERY IMPORTANT. Don't sew on the line. Sew 1/4" on either side of the line, then cut on the line. This will give you two HST's about 1/2" smaller than the original squares. I demonstrate this in my first video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJbIkqCCr66XqNE
