On Friday 7th Feb I posted and linked my One Monthly Goal, today I achieved it. All those flying geese are now firmly sewn into their blocks, ready for trimming and setting into the final layout. At least one block has some of the background fabric 180 degrees out of phase, but in the end I left it like that. If it had been 90 degrees out it would have been ripped out and resewn as that really would have grated on the eye.
Here are all 43 blocks sat on the yellow sashing and brown cornerstone/border fabrics. The yellow colour is in the pattern of the cream "sky" parts of the flying geese, and it was that sky fabric that turned out to be uni-directional. The border brown has red details in it to go with the red in the main blocks.
More trimming, cutting and sewing will happen after my next business trip. Just for once I will not be changing time zones or crossing international borders for a site visit!
So nice to achieve the One Monthly Goal after a looong break!
NIce blocks--always love flying geese!
