Geese in the Roses
60 x 69
It's a flimsy!
I have been working on two different Rose quilts made from scraps; however, I also felt like digging into the yardage to make more scraps. So this quilt top happened before the two scrap quilts happened.
I have to say my inspiration was a Flying Geese quilt at Stitched in Color. I found it while researching different Flying Geese quilts. I kept a picture of her quilt in front of me while I was making my Flying Geese. That way I didn't have to decide a layout later on, didn't have to think too much, could just sew, knew the number of Flying Geese required, and no design wall/floor and constant arranging and rearranging of Flying Geese required.
I do love roses.
Yes, I do love roses.
I really like this one! I have always been drawn to flying geese and set like this is so cool!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I'm doing the same thing with that pattern. I decided after I bought it that I would change it up a little.
ReplyDeleteThis is so lovely with all the rose fabrics--I am working on my own Flying Geese and was inspired by the same "Stitched in Color" posting...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish..hugs from afar Julierose
Looks great, Kathy, and you have such a great eye for color - I love those bright aquas in amongst the warmer pinks and reds and browns. Really nice!
ReplyDeleteLooks really great! You should know that I love pink roses (all over my house!), and I also love flying geese. A few years ago, I made a wall hanging in red and green, all flying geese, and named it Flying Home for Christmas. I love it too. ---"Love"
ReplyDeleteGood gracious- a flimsy on Wednesday, another flimsy on Thursday and yet another flimsy on Friday. All gorgeous. Another idea for me to squirrel away. I think I’m running out of storage areas in my brain! 😉
ReplyDeleteYour quilt turned out lovely! I've also been admiring the geese quilts on Stitched in Color. Thanks for more inspiration, happy stitching!
ReplyDeletePerfect - just perfect. I love how you use your many different rose fabrics.
ReplyDeleteThree rose quilts, yes you do really love Rose's! And obviously have such a lot of rosey fabric pieces to work your magic with.
ReplyDeleteLooking great! I too have been following along with Rachel's geese QAL, she has shared some wonderful tips for making these.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun Flying Geese layout! I'm so attracted to geese, and this one really makes me drool!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on completing another rose-y quilt top. It's SEW lovely!!
ReplyDeleteI marvel at how prolific you are. All your quilts are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful rose themed fabrics! Love flying geese!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Flying roses! I'm toying with the idea of a Flying Geese quilt too, but first I am resolved to finish some (or all my) UFO's.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty with all the rose fabrics! I like the way the geese are flying in different directions!
ReplyDeleteHi Cathy, that is a really lovely flimsy. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI love your Rosy Geese! (And I'm pretty sure that goose poop is good fertilizer for roses, so excellent combination!)
ReplyDeleteI like the different lengths of geese -- just enough to keep it interesting. Nice!
ReplyDeleteI have been inspired by her flying geese as well. You did a good job. Maybe I can start cutting one out for the near future?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful it is so colorful!
ReplyDeleteLove the sky blues with the rose prints! Beautiful combination :)
ReplyDeleteI love a good geese quilt but this one is better than good. Love it!:)
