A Sawtooth Star Top

It's a top!

Sawtooth Stars

40 x 56

I mentioned in June that someone sent me a box of Flying Geese bodies ( the fabric kind). I decided to make some strips of Flying Geese and to use them in Sawtooth Stars. 

I used scraps from the 2.5 inch width scrap box for Star Points ( Flying Geese wings) and for Star corner squares. 

I used 4.5 inch squares from my bin of squares for the Star centers. 
I made 35 eight inch finished Stars and assembled this child sized comfort quilt top. Now I will continue to make the rest of the Flying Geese bodies into strips after I give them some wings. 

And sew on...

Geese flying all the way up to the stars; love it! I appreciate that you didn't sew the kitties right next to the dog. That would had been CATastrophic. Hehehe! Enjoy! ;^)

It looks like a stained glass window with the light coming through from the back. I never get tired of sawtooth stars.

I like that, "giving the geese some wings". Another lovely quilt top.

Laughing about the flying geese bodies being the fabric kind - what an imagination!

You did a great job with those flying geese. They made fabulous stars! That quilt will surely be loved. Congratulations on another finish.

Geese bodies? And you added wings or sky? I wouldn't mind a gift like that. So colorful. My geese bodies are used in hour glass blocks. Duh. Must remember this.
