Quilted Kitchen: Wild Goose Chase Quilt Block and Goose Tart Recipe
Wild Goose Chase Quilt Block
Cutting Requirements for 12″ finished block (precise 1/4″ seam allowance):
- White: Cut TWO (2) 3 1/2″ squares.
- White: Cut ONE (1) 6 1/2″ square.
- White: Cut THIRTY-TWO (32) 2″ squares. Then draw a diagonal line on the back of the squares, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time.
- White: Cut ONE (1) 4 1/4″ squares. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2 times). You will end up with FOUR (4) triangles.
- Purple: Cut ONE (1) 4 1/4″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2 times). You will end up with FOUR (4) triangles.
- Purple: Cut SIXTEEN (16) 2″ x 3 1/2″ strips.
- Blue: Cut SIXTEEN (16) 2″ x 3 1/2″ strips.
Begin by making your Quarter-Square Triangles, then sew the White 2″ squares to the corners of your Purple and Blue strips to create your Flying Geese. Finally, sew the left and right Flyging Geese strips to the center White square and sew the top and bottom Flying Geese and Quarter-Square Triangles to the center section.
The blue and purple strips should be 2 x 3 1/2″ not 2 x 3″
