I found this site today and wanted to share...
Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims have a new video website called The Quilt Show and though you have to join to see all the shows, they do offer one show to view for free. In it, Ricky Tims shows a technique for making Flying Geese blocks using only ONE seam! If you haven't seen it already, I thought you all might like to see how he does it. Here's the link, and when you click it, just scroll down a little bit until you see "Choose your environment to watch this show". Just click one of the three choices and you're on your way. Enjoy!

You ladies are so welcome! I'm happy you liked the technique. I've already made a few and they really are so quick and easy to make this way. (Oh, and did you notice that Ricky Tims credits some ladies in England for showing him how to make them this way?? Smile Smile )

That was so informative! What a neat idea!! Thanks to the British ladies who taught Ricky that, so he could tell us! Thanks, Suzanne, for sharing! I will have to try that out, for sure!

You're welcome ladies! I love making flying geese blocks and this is just such a fast and easy way to make them I was pretty sure you all would enjoy learning this method too! Smile Smile

And isn't it great to see Alex Anderson back hosting her own quilting show again?? (I wish it was on TV, but I guess beggars can't be choosers.....) Wink
