This month it's all about flying geese! We will be making lots of no-waste flying geese and combining them with the Month 3 blocks. My quilt is made with Kaleidoscope by Island Batik!
There are monthly cutting instructions for anyone who is sewing along! Be sure to purchase the pattern and respond back to my invite to the exclusive newsletter!
Here are my Top Tips:
- I use the Wing Clipper to trim all of the no-waste flying geese.
- I also use the Clearly Perfect Angles to eliminate the need to draw diagonals on my squares.
- Below are the images for how to make the no-waste flying geese. Written instructions are in the pattern.
- For the center, we are using the stitch and flip corners. If your center is too large, I recommend using the Cute Cuts ruler to trim these types of blocks. (Square in a Square blocks)
- Here's what you should have finished for Month 4.
- Combine these pieces with the Month 3 blocks to finish the mini quilt or make 4 of them for the full-sized quilt!
