Eleanor Burns is the person who introduced me to quilting. I was home in my senior year of college for spring break and this quilting show came on early in the morning. She was teaching how to make a log cabin quilt. I was so enamored that that very same day that I drove to Jo-Ann Fabrics and randomly bought fabric and came home and made a queen-size quilt in one weekend. Then I hand-quilted it . This had to be like 25-30 years ago. And I haven't stopped quilting yet. And the log cabin is still my favorite Quilt Block to this day.

@lesleymeyers962 Год назад

Beautiful story ❤️

@BEVERLYRANDOLPH-lx4qu 8 месяцев назад

Love that story!

@debrarevay7493 Год назад

I'm 66 years old and started watching Eleanor Burns on PBS the summer of 1987 while I was pregnant with my first daughter. She is the one that thought me how to quilt. I guess I have all her rulers. I will be eternally grateful to Eleanor Burns for all she has taught me. I love your video's and have learned a lot from you, Kimberly.

@connieking9873 Год назад

This is one of the best tutorials both visually and the instruction part. It is step by step in every one. Thanks

@ibrockinrobin67 Год назад

I got the Ultimate Flying Geese ruler as a Christmas gift. I just needed to make several for a border and used it for the 1st time 2 days ago. Can I just sat say that I LOVE that ruler. I actually used the 4 at a time method and then oversized them slightly. Then I used the ruler to trim. They turned out perfectly and the extra grip helped keep the ruler where it needed to be. It has 4 or 5 sizes and was much less than the bloc loc individual rulers. Bonus, I only have to keep track of one ruler. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us.

@theacademicstitcher Год назад

I use the 4-at-a-time method, but I cut the squares slightly larger than the chart calls for and then use my Bloc Loc flying geese rulers to trim them down. Perfect every time!

@diane3363 Год назад

I love these demonstration videos! It's so helpful to see how other methods work! Having them in just one place is awesome, no hopping around to different videos to find what you want to know! Thanks Kimberly and Team!

@maryackermann Год назад

Thanks for this educational overview! I love the four-at-a-time method using Deb Tucker‘s Wing Clipper.

@themonogrammom Год назад

I prefer the Eleanor Burns method for assembly (because you only need to cut 2 squares), but I prefer the creative grids ultimate flying geese ruler to trim the units (Because all sizes are in one ruler). Great tutorial, Kimberly.

@grumpy_poo Год назад

I was wondering if that would work, thank you

@jhwilliams6550 Год назад

I was wondering if you could do that, thanks for the tip. I have the creative grids ruler but use the fast method Lori Holt uses. I will have to try out the other way.

@dawnshoviak706 Год назад

I do this combo too! I'm happy to have the cheat sheet now for cutting the initial squares.

@krystleroy3068 Год назад

I do kinda the same with debs ruler and Jodi’s square in a square system

@anniebodos Год назад

Have you ever used the Deb Tucker ruler? It’s a great tool as well. I love that you made this tutorial Kimberly. It’s terrific. Thanks for your dedication to helping all of us quilters find easier ways of doing things. ♥️

@ceciliaschleicher278 Год назад

I think the Creative Grids tool is equivalent to Deb Tucker's ruler 😊

@jamesdurchenwald Год назад

@@ceciliaschleicher278 They aren't really the same. The wing clippers offer more sizes and wing clipper II offers 1/4 inch increments as well. I find the clarity of the wing clippers to be easier to see through than the CG ones with the gray lines on them.

@ceciliaschleicher278 Год назад

@James Durchenwald I think everyone has a tool that makes more sense to them than another. Like, I can't grasp using the Pineapple Block ruler. So, FPP is the way for me. I also press my seams open so Clearly Perfect Slotted Trimmers are for me and not Bloc Loc. I also prefer to do my flying geese 4 at a time if I am making 4 or more in the same fabrics. But, obviously if I only need 1 or 2, I like the FPP because the sew and flip method gives me too much wonky no matter how hard I try😉😊. I can't snowball anything either - too wonky 🙄

@jamesdurchenwald Год назад

@@ceciliaschleicher278 Absolutely. I have LocBloc but I only use them if I don't plan to press open as well. Doug Lenke also has a great ruler for squaring up that lets me trim before I press open that is really slick as well. I have bought WAY too many rules over the years finding what I like for sure. :) Snowballing is my nightmare which is why I looked into Doug's corner cutting ruler. Makes it so much easier for me to trim the corners off before I sew. It is so cools we have so many options out there. What a great time to be a quilter!

@ceciliaschleicher278 Год назад

@James Durchenwald I just looked at Doug Leko rulers and they look like something that I definitely would like. But, I am wondering if they are non-slip. If not, that is a deal breaker.

@paulaweston5242 Год назад

I use the your Fast Flying geese method to make oversize flying geese, and trim with my Deb Tucker Wing Clipper. It trims very accurately. With this trimmer you can make oversize units in any way and trim for accuracy. Nice to know there are some good tools out there. I am very happy with mine. I went from dreading flying geese to considering them as one of my favorites.

@angelastoutenger7944 Год назад

Thank you for showing the different ways to make Flying Geese. Very helpful Kimberly. Thanks also for the cheat sheets.

@kellyhoffman145 Год назад

This is the best tutorial! I love seeing all of the different ways in one video. I actually have all of the rulers and papers. My favorite is using the Elenor Burns way but I use a Bloc Loc ruler to cut for accuracy. I appreciate your teaching Kimberly to always read ahead in the pattern and make adjustments for cutting based on some of these techniques. Thank you so much Kimberly and the Fat Quarter team!

@karenbrunette6314 Год назад

I prefer traditional but will try loris way and the papers. Fancy rulers are not in my budget but I appreciate you sharing all of them. You are a great teacher Kimberly

@lafifer Год назад

I have sewed for many years. I am new to quilting - have made mug rugs and table runners to practice techniques. I am ready to make my first quilt - Thanks for the instructional videos you make!. they are so clear and confidence-building. What a great shop Fat Quarter is and you make it extra special! Thank you, Kimberly!

@redknitter Год назад

Loved the video. My go to method is Deb Tuckers Wing Clipper and 4 at a time

@kseitz1 5 месяцев назад

I, too, love the Eleanor Burns Flying Geese rulers! I made an entire quilt using these rulers. The geese were the stars around a center block with memory pictures printed on them. They came out perfectly! The quilt was given as a memory quilt to an outgoing Scoutmaster. It continues to be treasured!

@kimdavenport9820 Год назад

I don’t make flying geese that much. But I’m thinking of trying these methods to see which I like more. Thank you for demonstrating them.

@laSher6515 Год назад

Thank you, Kimberley. I was struggling the other day with the best method to make flying geese. Your demonstration has helped me. Great tutorial!

@gailjarrell2889 Год назад

I am currently working on a Cory Yoder pattern that calls for 120 flying geese. I tried foundation paper for the first 2 and realized it was going to take forever. I pulled out my Eleanor Burns “Calling All Geese” ruler and got them made in no time. So if I’m making a three or less, I’ll use foundation paper, but when I’m making 4 or more, I’m pulling out my Eleanor Burns ruler. Thank you for this tutorial. It was great to see a comparison of all the methods.

@geralynlima9152 Год назад

I began quilting with Eleanor Burns also!

@Tami_from_Texas Месяц назад

I have seen the fast-flying geese method but always forget about this when I have a pattern calling for more than one. I have heard you speak of the Elenor Burns method but have not seen this demonstrated until now. I need to print out the cheat sheet so that when a pattern calls for more than 1 I can do the 4 at a time method no matter which of the options I choose. I will need to get her rulers. Thanks for the tutorial on this Kimberly.

@PeggySue-RL Год назад

Elenor Burns is a hero in the quilting world. She started stripping n rotary cutting to tach us all how to use a Ritter cutter. She was in PBS n a bit miss every Saturday morning. Kimberly keep up the work of teaching all the beginners n seasoned quilters ❤

@julxie-quitting6741 Год назад

My favorite is to use the Creative Grids ruler, BUT, I make four at a time - I do not cut the squares in half, but use the fast flying geese method similar to Lori Holt’s. I use the ruler to trim the flying geese and end up with four accurately sewn units with very little waste! The directions for this ruler include both the method that Kimberly demonstrated and the method that I use.

@toniwatrobka3068 Год назад

I’ve ruined many quilt blocks trying to make flying geese. This Eleanor Burns method is GENIUS. The thing that makes it work so well are Kimberly’s tweaks. As always thx for the sewing tips & fabulous video😘

@melissawriglesworth7123 Год назад

Eleanor Burns was the first quilter I ever watched. She made quilting look so easy. Very inspiring. My first flying geese blocks I made I trimmed to short and wondered why my points were flat. Researched Eleanor and figured out my mistake. Love your channel and shop. Still enjoy my sew sampler box.

@OmjQuilting Год назад

Hey Kimberly!! ✋🏻 Thank you for the video! I’m a HUGE fan of all of your quilt block papers!! 🙌🏻 The Triangles on a roll & Flying Geese are all I use for my quilt blocks!! ❤❤Thank you for making them!!!

@helenwilliams7112 Год назад

Thank you so much for this! You mentioned at the beginning of the video about people who have helped you with your techniques as you have learned to quilt. You have been one of the most helpful people to me! Because of you, I starch my fabric and this makes it so much easier when I am sewing and cutting. Thank you for your help!

@patstrawhouse4005 8 месяцев назад

Hi, Kimberley! I usually use the Fast Flying Geese method-4-at-time (1 large; 4 small squares)- but now the Eleanor Burns method is my new favourite! It’s brilliant! Thanks for the tip about adding 1/2”. Honestly, squaring up is my favourite part of the quilting process, 😊 Thanks you, and stay well! Muskoka ON 🇨🇦

@marshavoigt5664 Год назад

I prefer the Eleanor Burns method and I like to use my Bloc-Loc templates with your small rotating mat. Perfect size every time. I use Eleanor Burns seam guide so I don't have to draw lines. I like your idea of cutting the squares in two, I haven't thought of that.

@dis9168 Год назад

Love you showing these choices of how to make specific blocks! This will help me!!

@sharynhutchinson885 Год назад

Thanks for all the ideas. I'm surprised you didn't mention the Wing Clipper ruler by Deb Tucker. My favorite...four perfect flying geese every time using her "no nudge" math. Give it a try

@Maraidh Год назад

Thanks for this Kimberly - great information 😊. I have just finished piecing the quilt top for the FQS temperature quilt 2023 pattern using temperature data for London 2022. As there were so many flying geese (over 700) and as the flying geese were titchy (1.25” x 2.5” finished) accuracy was key. I decided to use the 4-in-one-go method, and to use the bloc ruler. I’m very pleased with the result. Every step of the process so far has been enjoyable, from collecting the data, to adding the borders. Next step: quilting it 😊

@Maraidh Год назад

I meant to say bloc loc ruler.

@juliejeavons6949 Год назад

Thanks Kimberley. I’ve been string piecing individual flying geese for my temperature quilt; I’ll definitely try the four at a time methods

@littlequiltsong9576 Год назад

Great video! I have only tried the first two methods, and still love the traditional method best. For me it is the most fun to cut and understand where I am going in my pattern. My little triangle wastes get put in a bag, and given to the schools, which use them for different learning purposes. Loved you showing all the methods, Kimberly - very interesting to see all 5 ways of making the flying geese blocks.

@donnar.9244 Год назад

Thanks to the FQS Crew for a great tutorial! After Sherri McConnell's tutorial/review on the CG Ultimate Flying Geese Tool, I bought it. I'm fairly new to quilting and was able to get a good result using the tool. I truly appreciate the 'Cheat Sheets' created by FQS

@joangieseke8941 Год назад

I use the Ultimate Flying Geese tool the most but also like the foundation paper. I have an Eleanor Burns ruler but haven’t tried it yet. I will now, thanks to this great tutorial!

@rohinichandrashekar9508 Месяц назад

Kimberley, thank you for your videos. You are a very good tutor. I love your precise, step by step instructions. I would love to move on from beginner to some intermediate/advanced quilts. Also single/two colour quilts. Will be great if you can go through colour/fabric selections and patterns for these.

@helenlineham8515 Год назад

I prefer the fast flying geese method and the Ultimate Flying geese Tool. Thank you Kimberly for a great tutorial comparing the different methods.

@reneesmith2665 Год назад

I just love your channel. Your videos have taught me so much. I also am truly thankful of all you give to us. I just wanted to take a moment and thank you. If you ever feel you are not making a difference I just wanted to let you know you do! Every week you inspire me and give such wonderful encouragement.

@McSnicker55 Год назад

The Sixth way is using HST's. I made Eleanor Burns Flying Geese quilt in queen size. It called for using 2 HST's to use as a flying goose (singular of geese). If you don't mind the seam in the middle, it really is fast and looks great.

@allisonmccullough6082 Год назад

My favorite way to make flying geese is the fast flying geese method using the creative grids ruler. I love that there is no waste 😊

@chilarenkada3016 Год назад

I always use the Eleanor Burns method because it is always accurate and that makes piecing the flying geese into your project so much easier! Thanks, Kimberly. I really appreciate your videos!

@dakin7612 Год назад

Eleanor Burns got me into quilting. However, I used polyester thread and didn't realize how that affected cotton fabrics. I quit quilting for many years and started again just a few years ago. We have sure come a long way. I love your patterns and fabrics.

@pamelasoper6448 Год назад

Perfect! Thank you so much for showing all of these methods!❤

@cccm60 Год назад

I love Eleanor Burns Rulers. I learned, like you, like 20years ago and found the directions easy to use and accurate. She was and is a trailblazer!

@christinemg3969 Год назад

What a coincidence. I just ordered the creative grids ultimate flying geese ruler from FQS this week. I hope I picked the best method for me. So many options!

@laurapommier1454 Год назад

I love the Eleanor Burns method. I have all of her Flying Geese rulers and use them all! This method turns out perfect geese every time! Thanks for the demo!

@pampeterson3092 Год назад

Thank you for demonstrating these methods. If I need just one flying geese I will use the first/ most common method and cut my fabric some so I have room to trim. I do have the CG ruler and I like it. Kimberly, you have taught me in making so many different blocks to cut a little larger then trim for best results.

@amydoyle6630 2 месяца назад

I love the Eleanor Burns method. I was able to make flying geese with my regular ruler, but immediately ordered the large ruler to make it easier on myself

@Carol-xt8ly Год назад

This is a fantastic tutorial! I was halfway through my first flying geese quilt when I found Elanor Burns method. It is my favorite. But I have some random pieces that I want to include so I'll try a few other methods as well in order to use up my scraps. Thank you for showing all these methods side by side!

@ecormack1 Год назад

I am familiar with Eleanor Burns but had never seen her method for flying geese. That really is slick! Thank you for making this video to show us all the ways.

@lupehawk5930 Год назад

I’ve used all but the foundation paper method - my favorite by far is the Creative Grids Flying geese ruler! It makes units as small 1x2 and so much more. Economical as all you need is one ruler for multiple sizes! I also like the Eleanor Burns rulers - used those in the past and had great success with it.

@pv6034 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for doing this video. Flying Geese is the block i struggle with the most. i learned the traditional and the fast flying geese and i cannot get a straight line to save my life! i am going to try the last two i think that is going to be what i need to get the results i want. I wish i had seen your video a while back, i am in the middle of making the Vibrations quilt and i had to make 288 flying geese and i will say i struggled to get them to come out accurate. Thank you again for the video!

@BEVERLYRANDOLPH-lx4qu Год назад

Kimberly I think this might be the best of all of your videos-certainly the best of all the ones I’ve seen. It’s just great. I’m excited to get into my next flying geese project! BTW, you have improved my accuracy with the pinning-on-both-ends tip! Thank you!!!

@toothrough Год назад

The Eleanor Burns method is my favorite! I learned something new from you guys today though - I like cutting the squares then sewing the 1/4-inch. I also press open when I know the geese have to attach to bulky blocks! Thanks FQS!

@manuelashannon1369 Год назад

I agree, pinning makes a difference. I took your advice and it improved my game drastically. Thank you. My last block came out perfectly sized!!!

@mardellgrayhek9958 Год назад

I love this. I am in the middle of this week's block for the Riley Blake 2023 challenge, and it is full of flying geese. I happened on this video as I wondered what would Lori Holt do? I am using the seamsso easy guide, but still p9ndering there must be an easier way to do this! Thanks for such a great tutorial, I will try these next time when I am cutting new pieces. Fantastic and inspiring.

@rhondaharvey5141 Год назад

Yes I like Eleanor Burns.Thank you Kimbley for a great tutorial .🤗🇦🇺

@astorybookfinish5055 Год назад

Maybe making the quilt math on Kimberly’s twist to the Eleanor Burns technique to be “add 1” so the waste leaves a potentially useable strip cut away when trimming the pieced unit.

@veramats Год назад

I’ve noticed that you don’t feature Deb Tucker tools. I really love her techniques and tools. I learned a lot from Eleanor Burns, but my favorite tools and techniques are from Deb Tucker. I’d love to see your take on the Tucker tools!

@rethamoore4282 Год назад

Kimberly , thank you so much for this tutorial on flying geese. I don't know why but I always steer clear of this block but now I can't wait to try it! ❤❤❤

I very much appreciate this tutorial, Kimberly and FQS. It was so nice to see all these methods demonstrated and all on one tutorial! Great reference video! Thanks so much!❤

@suebean3873 6 месяцев назад

So I’m doing a quilt this week with 30 stars in it, so I’m making a whole bunch of Flying Geese. I started by using the “Quilt In A Day” templates, the ones you prefer and called the Eleanor ones. I have used them before but thought there was quite a bit of waste compared to the 2 at a time, perhaps the #2 ones you made, (Lori Holt). They seem quicker to make than the Quilt In A Day Flying Geese template that you like. I’ve always loved them too but I think after using the other method today, I’m going to continue doing the lori Holt ones. I’ll have to go back and check on it again but I “think” it was #2. Thank you for the comparisons. There is another couple of ways that I can think of which I found last night. One is doing the seminole method, where you sew 3 strips together, then cut the strips and rearrange them sideby each, one block down each time, sew then cut and voila you can make tons of them at a time, like 10, then the other method is the same idea, but you can make 20 at a time and they’re accurate, a bit of waste, not that much. I know there are other methods, love making them…thank you for your tutorial. So interesting…

@vikkivanveldhuizen2290 Год назад

Since buying it, I’ve preferred the Ultimate Flying Geese Tool. Thanks for sharing this video.

@marykubicek5434 Год назад

Oh Rats!!! I just gave away, this past weekend, Eleanor's ruler. It was my mother's ruler that was never unwrapped. After watching your video, I want it back. I think I will invest in the bigger ruler. Thanks.

@amandaaskew7606 Год назад

Thank you, Kimberly! Flying Geese are my arch nemesis! You gave me a few other ways to try for sure, as well as some tips. I do pin, but probably get over zealous with the iron, lol.

I never wanted to make flying geese, but now I can't wait to try 😊

@ashleyv.6624 Год назад

Depending on how many I need to make, I will use different methods! I love my Eleanor Burns rulers, I also own the creative grids ruler and the it sew Emma foundation paper in almost every size. I like the foundation paper if I just need one or two for a block- but if I need a lot for a quilt it’s def the quilt in a day ruler!

@christinaknapp9507 Год назад

Thank you Kimberly! I have tried all but the foundation paper method and I agree with you, Eleanor Burns is the master and her method rocks. Love the cheap sheets, mow I do to have to try and recall geometry class formulas from high school which was a LONG time ago

@LAUREL5784 Год назад

@susanfinn7653 Год назад

I have alway despised flying geese but I am excited to try some of these methods. Thank you for this video!

@8machines62 Год назад

I make the traditional way. I have the ultimate flying geese but I see I didn’t use it properly so will try it again. I have another ruler also just like the ultimate. I have tried the 4 at a time but they were too small. I will try again adding a 1/4”. Thank you Kimberly!! I will keep this.

@laftane Год назад

I liked the video and would definitely watch more like this. I want to put in a plug for two other methods/tools that weren't covered. One is the Mini Simple Folded Corners ruler by Antler Quilt Designs. I use the oversized triangle method with this ruler. I like it because instead of starting with two squares, you start with one slightly oversized square that you cut on the diagonal. This means you need half the number of squares, and it is accurate with very little waste. The other method/tool I love is the Bloc-Loc ruler. The down side is that you need a different ruler for each size of flying geese. The upside is that they are the most accurate I have ever been able to make. After watching your tutorial, I am going to try the Eleanor Burns ruler again because I have used it, but I don't think my results have been as consistently good as yours.

@carolbanks8313 Год назад

@kathleenguggenmos3315 Год назад

The Eleanor Burns method has been my favorite for years as well. Thank you for the great tutorial!

@sharonstarr6338 Год назад

I use the Ultimate Flying Geese tool except I use the second method you showed then trim down using the ruler. I have never used the Eleanor Burns method but will give it a try. Thanks for this very helpful tutorial! Additional comment: I tried the Eleanor Burns method this week and love it! Thanks for this tip!

@imclueless1 Год назад

This was amazing. I’ve always done the first method but I love the last one best. Thank you!

@casey9713 Год назад

Oh my goodness! What a wonderful video!! And the cheat sheets are priceless!! I am fairly new to quilting and have the Creative Grids ruler. I looked over the instructions and was totally overwhelmed so have never used it. I generally use the traditional method but can get some really wonky results. I have also tried the foundation papers with more accurate results but a bit more time consuming to make. Can't wait to try out the CG ruler, now that I know how to use it!! Thank you so much for your tutorials - very much appreciated. :)

@marianneparkinson3873 4 месяца назад

@LongmontJeni Год назад

That ruler in #4 is very right handed. I like seeing so many different methods.

@sophiafatcat Год назад

I use either the fast fly geese method or the Eleanor Burns method. I've exclusively used EB's rulers but just got the Creative Grids one as it has all trim sizes on it (makes it easier for going to retreats). I hate the ones where you cut the fabric into triangles because of the bias (I don't starch but have been known to use Best Press to stabilize the bias). Great overview and demo of all of the methods!

@sewquilty Год назад

Such a great Reference Video to go back to whenever needed. THANKS!

@denisepineda1788 Год назад

Awesome video. Thank you so much. I love the easy 4 at a time like Lori Holt does. I also don’t mind just the traditional method as long as I have starched my fabrics but you have to be accurate. I need to try the flying geese paper. I have used the triangles on a roll but not the flying geese paper yet. Also many thanks for the cheat sheet for each. I will be printing and putting in sheet protectors for future reference!! You and your team are the best in the business!!

Best FG tutorial ever! And can't wait to download the resources. I wouldn't have the patience for the foundation paper and my brain doesn't wrap around the Burn's method. To date, fast and Creative Grids are my favorite.

This is a terrific video! I use foundation paper, but I have the Eleanor Burns ruler and I’m going to give it a try. Yay!!!! Learning new ways is see much fun!
