I started this quilt well over a year ago. It was originally going to be a quilt for our bed but I decided to choose small accomplishment over no accomplishment at all so I turned it into a quilt for Molly who needed something girly. I love the flying geese quilt pattern. It’s just so vintage and modern all at the same time. Traditionally it would have solid backgrounds but I am on a mission to finally eat through my fabric stash and make more quilts so I started making these geese just one by one.

My personality doesn’t do too many solids well so in my world pattern + pattern = awesomeness! My favorite part of the process was coming up with inspiring combinations of geese these geese here, those geese there. The “geese” part of the design are the triangles, meant to resemble flying geese. I finally settled on 4 matching geese together and each column opposite. When I realized that I wanted it a tad longer I came up with the diamond solution across the middle. For years I have said that I would finally FINISH a quilt and I am proud to share pictures of this project for you. Because for me it represents many “Undone” projects wrapped up in completeness and it feels SO good.
