Flying Geese quilt block
Well, you don’t know this, but I do. I’m a little behind on my quilt blocks and procedures. Let me present my last and one of the easiest quilt blocks I have completed to date: Flying Geese. You use triangles to put it together. In my case, you sew one smaller purple triangle to the larger multi turquoise one, iron, and add second purple triangle. That makes what I called a flying goose. 
. Then you make a second goose and attach the two for geese. Easy Peasy. No Flying Monkeys required.
I really enjoyed this one, it went quick and easy, no complications like the 9 patch variation and the friendship star. I must say the star looks much better than I thought it could. I blogged about it last time. I almost called those pesky Flying Monkeys out on that one to get it finished, or ripped apart 
. Thankfully, the color in the material I used for it blended so well it hides my imperfections pretty well. I really enjoyed the ease Flying Geese went together with. I made zero mistakes with it as far as I can tell, so that makes it and the Rail Fence my most successful blocks so far. I think my Sampler is going to turn out great though. Since I had to bring up Flying Monkeys, I’ve got an awesome Halloween card from Boyfriend that I want to tell you about. . . . . .
Wicked Witch of the West
This card made me laugh! I love the Wizard of Oz. It is one of my all time favorite movies. I love Dorothy’s parting words to Scarecrow: I think I’m going to miss you most of all. I love how all the characters develop and become friends and love each other. It is such a great movie. The card reminded me how much fun I have when I watch it. I didn’t watch it for Halloween, but maybe I should have! I may have to start a new tradition next year….
I am getting more and more excited about this quilt everyday! I have a a piece of material with scenes from the farm of the Wizard of Oz I may try my hand at next. Tomorrow I will show you have far Candy’s quilt has come, and a beautiful one that our instructor Stephanie is working on. In the meantime, hope you have a fun day, without too much trouble. But if you get in trouble, just remember to blame it on those pesky monkeys! Talk to you tomorrow! Angela
