Missing Quilt Top

Last February I took a finished quilt top to the Quilt Bee and presented it to the committee.  They would get it quilted and then it would go in the pile to go to the Hospice after the reno takes place.  It seems this top is missing.  I know that some of the gals in the Guild visit my blog so I am sending out an SOS to see if anyone out there has this quilt top and is hopefully working on it.  It hasn't been seen since the Quilt Bee. 

This is my Flying Geese Quilt Top.

I put a lot of hours into this quilt and

was really thrilled with the results.

I hope someone out there

in cyberspace can help me

find this top.

I used the "Deb Tucker Wing Clipper Ruler" .

It makes flying geese fly.

Flying Geese or Canada Geese Quilt

I put the sashing and the borders onto the Flying Geese Quilt.  I am not going to quilt it, it is too big for me to handle.  It is going to be given to the Quilt Guild and someone there will quilt it.  The Annual Quilt Bee is next Thursday at one of the local hotels so I am going to take it with me and give it to the Bee Chairperson to add to the finished products of the day. 

Flying Geese Quilt Top

When I started this quilt I was going to make Geese in the Park on the Moda Bakeshop site, but when I started to put it together I didn't like how it was turning out so I searched for another pattern and used Connecting Threads Flying Geese Quilt Pattern.  as a guide.  This is a really easy free pattern.  I didn't make it the size the pattern called for though, because the guild wants them to be 63 x 80 inches so that is what it is.

I used the Deb Tucker Wing Clipper ruler and used the no waste method of doing flying geese.  I hate wasting fabric and always save whatever I can and this method comes in really handy for making flying geese with no waste.  You make them a little larger than the pattern calls for and then you square them up.  

Another finish.

Flying Geese or are they Canada Geese

I have been making Flying Geese.  I made 112 altogether but will only use 85 in my quilt.  I like to use Deb Tucker's Wing Clipper ruler.  This is a no waste method and really go together super fast.

It was Quilt Therapy day today, and it was just Joyce and me.  We both got a lot done.  She was quilting her bed scarf, and was able to finish it and we trimmed it so that she could add her binding tonight.

I was able to sew all my flying geese together so now I am going to add sashing and then borders.

Schnibbles Class

Last night I took the second of two classes making a Schnibbles Quilt.  We used Carrie Nelson's Schnibbles times two book.  With this book you can make quilts using 5" charm squares or 10" layer cakes or just that size of scraps.

We also used Deb Tucker's Wing Clipper Ruler to make our flying geese for the quilt.  There is a video on youtube on how to use this ruler.  I took this class because I had heard a lot about this ruler and wanted to learn how to use it. 

Wendy was the instructor

She has made a lot of these quilts,

so it was a great class.

It is always good to take a class from

someone who has made the quilt

before.

The class busy working.

Maria's - almost finished

Marlene's - one row done

Maureen's piano key border.

Maureen's finished and

she used all scraps.

Isn't it beautiful.!!

This is mine.

I have to add the piano key border.

The border is sown together so hopefully I should

have it finished in a day or so.
