There is something endlessly satisfying about a row of flying geese marching across a quilt top, and Remixed Geese gives this classic block a fresh, playful update. Bright solids meet just the right touch of print, all arranged into pointed little "geese" that seem to take flight across the quilt in a way that feels both modern and warmly nostalgic.
The pattern is built on a forgiving palette of solids with a few mixed prints to keep things lively, and the finished quilt measures 54" x 66", a lovely lap-quilt size that drapes beautifully over a sofa or a single bed. It is a confident beginner project, so if you have a few quilts behind you and would like to try flying geese in a modern, joyful setting, this is a really sweet place to start.
- A modern take on a classic block. Remixed Geese reimagines the traditional flying geese block with a bright, contemporary palette, giving you all the comfort of a familiar technique with a fresh modern look.
- Confident beginner friendly. If you have a few quilts under your belt and want to expand into geese units, the pattern is gentle, methodical and clearly explained.
- Finished size 54" x 66". A perfect lap quilt, sofa throw or sweet child's bed quilt, generous without being overwhelming to piece.

Tip: before printing the pattern, set your printer to "no scaling" or "actual size" so the measurements stay true. Pressing each unit carefully as you go makes flying geese sit crisper and points sharper, well worth a few extra minutes at the ironing board.
