My friend Stacey recently had a happy surprise - baby #3! A precious little boy.
So of course this calls for a baby quilt, I thought. Her nursery colors are black, white and a lime-ish green. Maybe a little bit of gray mixed in.
I had been wanting to try a flying geese pattern, so I went for it.
Then I realized how much of a learning curve quilting can be. Several of my geese (the triangles) have clipped beaks & wings. So I'm calling this one "Domesticated Geese."
For this quilt I hemmed it instead of binding it. Much faster and certainly much easier. Thank you Gussy for the suggestion!
Quilt stack in geometric prints from Joann's & 3 green quilters cuts.
Batting: Needle punch low-loft polyester
Backing: G is for Green print from Walmart
Quilting: straight line using my walking foot. Quilted in the ditch on the geese units, and a double line in the green strips.
Congratulations Stacey and Connor!
