Flapping Geese - Free Quilt Pattern

Get ready to soar into the world of creative quilting with the stunning Flapping Geese quilt, a Robert Kaufman pattern that transforms fabric into a breathtaking aerial masterpiece! Measuring a generous 56" x 64", this intermediate-level quilt captures the magic of movement through a sophisticated design of flying geese blocks in the dreamy "Evening Glow" fabric collection. The quilt's color palette of blues, whites, and grays creates a mesmerizing ombré effect that mimics the subtle transitions of a twilight sky, making each block seem to flutter and dance across the surface.

Crafted with precision and creative passion, the Flapping Geese quilt is a journey through advanced piecing techniques that will challenge and delight quilters. The pattern requires creating 112 flying geese blocks, carefully arranged into eight rows of seven blocks, with each block meticulously constructed through a multi-step process of diagonal stitching and strategic fabric placement. Quilters will love the detailed instructions that guide you through creating perfect flying geese units, pressing techniques, and block orientation, transforming simple squares into a dynamic, movement-filled design that looks far more complex than its straightforward construction.

What makes the Flapping Geese quilt truly extraordinary is its ability to tell a story of motion and transformation. More than just a blanket, this quilt is a celebration of quilting artistry, color theory, and geometric design. The Ten Square-friendly approach means quilters can easily mix and match fabrics, creating a unique piece that reflects their personal creativity. Whether displayed as a striking wall hanging, draped over a bed, or used as a conversation-starting throw, this quilt promises to become a cherished piece that sparks imagination and admiration. It's not just a quilting project - it's a symphony of fabric, color, and craftsmanship that captures the essence of modern quilting!
