I was in the mood to quilt something traditional ----
my all-time favorite strippy-style quilt ---- Flying Geese. It seemed appropriate during this Autumn season.
Machine Pieced, Machine Quilted, 24" x 24"
Fabrics: "Graditude" by Jo Morton, Moda
"Silver Linings" by Laundry Basket Quilts, Moda
Sashing, borders, backing, and binding from my scraps/stash.
This is not my first go-around with the geese, as I've made several variations of them over the years. This was the very first one in 1983:
Machine pieced, hand quilted, 82" x 103"
Still at the top of my list of favorite traditional strippy-style quilts!

A classic pattern in gorgeous autumn colors! Great job :)
One of my all time favorite quilt squares...flying geese. Love your fall inspired fabrics. Wonderful work, TFS!
This is so pretty and perfect for fall.
Beautiful! Gotta love a strippy Flying Geese quilt. It always works, no matter if the fabrics are traditional, modern, batik, or whatever.
It's hard to beat an old style strippy quilt made in those lovely fabrics :-)
Love your flying geese quilt! Perfect for the fall.
Your Flying Geese quilts are so lovely! Your Flying Geese blocks are perfect! Many times I lose my upper point, but I'm getting better. What's your secret? :) I love learning from more experienced quilters! Thank you for sharing!
Sorry! I forgot to mention how beautiful your quilting is as well! :)
It's a beautiful quilt! Thanks for linking to Finished or Not Friday Linky Party at Busy Hands Quilts!
Your little flying geese quilt is beautiful! I love the colours!!
Very pretty. Absolutely perfect for fall!
So beautiful. I'm beginning to 'find my voice' in traditional quilt-style. Geese are one of my favorite units.
