The bird blocks and a large flock of flying geese were made as part of my Daily Feather project.What's next:
- Miter the corners of the borders (they are pinned in place now)
- Re check my match ... I made a large flock of flying geese units, but, although there are more than you see in the photo, I don't think that I have made enough.
- Make more flying geese if needed.
- Make the corner blocks for the flying geese border
- Add the flying geese border
- Add/stitch appliqué elements (perches and doors for the houses)
- Mark the quilting designs. I plan to use a mix of marked and unmarked free motion quilting.
- Layer and baste the quilt
- Quilt, bind and label it.
It sounds so quick and easy, doesn't it? The appliqué will be sewn by hand--my plan for today's Slow Stitch Sunday.

This is simply a stunning quilt! Love the colors..hugs, Julierose
I love using flying geese as a border, perfect for this bird quilt. Very creative!
It is coming along perfectly! The creative juices are flowing and all the next steps are ready to take! Thanks for linking up!
Oh, what a fun quilt! Can't help but smile looking at it.
I don't know what I like better, the lovely contrast of orange with aqua, or the great background fabric that looks like billowy clouds. This will be great.
a really cute quilt that is coming together here and the colors are really wonderful~!!~
you're right, it looks to quick and easy in list form but this slow stitching takes lots of time.
it looks as though you will reach your goal though. i guess at least part of the success hinges on good organizational skills.

What an easy list (hehe!) A few words but lots of time. Enjoy your slow stitching today on a very cute quilt.
It's adorable, Sophie. Nicely done.
Love everything about your bird quilt, Sophie! Great design and use of color. Somebody's going to be really lucky to have that one.
Yes, it does alway sound quick and easy . . . ha, we know better. I love this quilt though!!!
Wow! Those orange birds against the aqua background.... Awesome! And I love the use of the black and white prints in the design. Love it!
