| 5 blocks on the design wall |
I have wanted to try this paper pieced pattern of crazy geese for a long time now, so I went to my old sew precise software, found the blocks and printed them out to finish at 6" square.
It takes a while to sew these, because the angles are all wonky, and when you paper piece then flip the fabric over, sometimes it doesn't cover the area. But I still like doing it a lot.

It might look cuter with different colors, so I'll do it another couple months in other colors before abandoning the project.
For now, it was fun.
The other project I made, I L O V E
I'll show it next week maybe, but it came out so much better than I expected, and it makes me clap my hands when I look at it! That feels nice!

Wild flying geese--how cute--now I like them..they are just in a hurry winging away from the expected bad weather up here..lol hugs, Julierose
Lovely blocks. So pretty green scraps.
I like your geese. I think your light and bright green scraps are prettier than mine!
Paper piecing fun. I agree with you that the skinny ones are too skinny. Your idea to repeat the wider ones a bit more might work. I hate tossing things aside but have been known to do that, too. Usually I just stick it in the scrap bag and it surfaces as an interesting, unplanned insert into some project.
Those are neat blocks! They look like they're moving!
Super funky flying geese, Lee Anna!! Looking forward to the reveal of your happy project. Is it next week, yet?
Hi LeeAnna,
How cool are these geese! When they become part of a whole with other colours and forms and you work your creative magic by adding quilting, lettering and a bit of bling bling it will look fantastic!
hugs,
Joanne
Love your crazy geese!

I think I prefer the bigger ones, too. But it's still quite lovely.
