After much fiddling around I have finished a geese block for Diane in the Modern Stitching Bee!
I have managed to sneak in a few imposter or HST units but I think the overall look is geese-like!!
Think I'll need to follow the KISS rule for the second one as this took so long to do!
If I were to make another I'd be tempted to paper piece it for greater accuracy - but from a distance with one eye shut, hoping up and down on one leg I don't think it looks too bad!

It is a real eye catching block. Di x

ReplyDeleteGorgeous geese! They must have taken hours!
ReplyDeleteGoosey enough to me!
ReplyDeleteOh that's what I do with my piecing (the jumping up and down bit) - always!! Yes, it qualifies as goosey to me.
ReplyDeleteGreat block! I can recommend the kiss method, I use it often!
ReplyDeleteyour block looks great up close, even if I don't squint and hop up and down a kilometre away.
ReplyDeleteI think she will appreciate all that work and time you have put into it too.
I think it is a brilliant block. Nice grey background. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWow, I love it! Did you design it yourself? Any chance of a tute?
ReplyDeleteLOL! Looks great from this side of the Irish sea! Jxo

ReplyDeleteDon't beat yourself up / put yourself own - its awesome, could even tempt me! ( do you think it could be thangled? Lol )
