    I am happy to see your e-mails again! I don't know what happened, but for months I haven't seen you, I saw you rip up your carpet and not find pretty wood floors the other day. Today I find you working on #46 or block 11. I don't know where you started. I do see a link to find other videos, but you know what it's like trying to play catch up. I am certainly glad nothing has happened and all is well. I sure hope I don't miss anymore e-mails!

    Hi Leah love your way of making flying geese. I have often stuffed up when making my geese like what you did in your video. Now days when sewing the fabric to the base fabric instead of sewing on the exact centre line I move my line approximately 1/8 away from it to allow for the fabric to fold over normally it works perfectly sometimes.! Then only to find when I have cut off both pieces of excess fabric its all loped sided. I will give your technique a go next time and I know that's only going to be a few days away. Will let you know how it all turns out. Happy quilting Julie Beard.

    Thanks for the trimming tip on the flying geese. I had the best points on my stars that I have ever had when I followed your advice. Hooray for you!!
