The Air up There Free Quilt Pattern by Bethany Fuller
The Air up There frames large print squares with sashing made from flying geese and narrow center strips. Two gray fabrics alternate around the block centers, while small pieced stars fill the sashing intersections and the outer corners. Featuring the Aviary collection, the quilt finishes at 66 by 82½ inches. An inner fabric border separates the center from a wider striped border, and the instructions include the flying-geese method, star construction, quilting, and binding.
