Wayfinder Quilt with revised flying geese construction

NOTE:  I made the Wayfinder Kit (pattern by Stacey Day and Tula Pink for Free Spirit / Coats), I decided to use a revised method for creating the flying geese. I respect the copyright on the pattern and the work of the designer, so I am solely providing you with the measurements and the resulting change to the yardage needed to complete the project.  I take no responsibility for any errors in cutting or with the accuracy of individual work. These methods are oversized to allow for trimming down to their final desired size.

I would highly recommend using a Bloc Loc Flying Geese ruler for this project.  It saved me hours of time in trimming the geese to size using my regular ruler.

For 4 at a time no waste flying geese (used for all w/ Natural sky and non-directional prints w/ Manatee sky):

• Cut print square at 5.75” 
• Cut 4 solid squares at 3.25”

For 1 at a time stitch and flip flying geese, aka rectangle and 2 squares (used for all directional prints w/ Manatee sky):

• Cut print rectangle at 2.75” x 4.75” 
• Cut 2 solid squares at 2.75” x 2.75”

Following these revised methods requires additional fabric:

• Natural sky/background geese*:  increase yardage by .333 yd minimum (.5 yd suggested)
• Manatee sky/background geese:  increase yardage by 1 yd minimum (1.25 yd suggested)
• Bear Hug in Star Light (pink):  increase yardage by .333 yd minimum OR 1 FQ (.5 yd suggested)

* I decided to create the single flying geese around the center star with solid background rather than the Arrowheads print, so my calculations do reflect that change.
