I got a question from Tracey and also from Dawn and her friend what the sizes are from the 'geese Ufo'. So I decided to make a little direction like Bonnie :c) .
I made this quilt with these two rulers from EZ . they are lovely to use with strips . I also used them for the fourth UFO :c)
In this quilt I do the 'innertriangle' from colors medium/dark .
First I cut a lot of strips in the size 2 inch . And then I cut them like as you can see at the picture with the companion angle ruler.
I saved them in a basket.
I choose light fabric like shirtings for the triangles
to make the geese complete. I also cut 2 inch strips. and
then I make triangles with the easy angle . I sew
both triangles to a geese and then three geeses together
Now they only need a triangle up and on the bottom. Because they are on the outsite from the block, it is better to make them with the grain on the short site of the triangle . So cut these triangles from 2 5/8 inch strips . Use the easy angle to cut the trianlges. You will see that it is not a perfect size to follow a line on the ruler. But that doesn't matter , it is important to lay the ruler straight ! (look at the picture)
. the fabric is a bit under the line and that is good!
So now we have a row with geeses! We only need to make the side triangles.
I make them from meduim /dark fabric.
Cut a 3 5/8 inch strip and cut the triangles with the easy angle !
You also see that the size doesn't follow a line on the ruler. But that doesn't matter only this size will fit perfect.
Lay the triangle to your 'geese row' as you see at the picture.And sew . Also make on at the other site.
