How to Make Flying Geese with AccuQuilt 

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like my channel and find it helpful. If you mean, how many charm squares (5" precut squares) would I need to buy to make a throw/lap quilt, the answer is 4 packs. We know that each precut square will measure 4.5" when sewn into a quilt. A lap/throw size quilt is typically 54" wide and 60" long. To achieve that with 4.5" squares, we need to sew them into rows of 12 squares each, and sew 13 rows together to get the quilt almost 60" long. So you have 13 rows with 12 squares in each row. That means you'll need 156 five inch squares. Each charm pack typically contains 42 squares, so you'll need four of them for your quilt. I hope this answers your question! Feel free to reach out again if you need additional help.

Thank you for your question! If I understand, you wish to make flying geese with the two different sky triangles. With the Accuquilt method, you are sewing each triangle on separately to the goose triangle (the big middle triangle), so it's easy to go scrappy. The Stich and Flip method (where you sew on squares to create the two sky triangles) would also allow you to easily use two different fabrics for the sky. The One Seam method also uses two small squares, so each one of those could be different if you wanted to make your sky triangles scrappy. The only method that might be tricky is the No Waste method, but again it uses four squares to create the sky triangles so you could scrap it up easily but mixing up the four fabrics you use for the squares. All of these methods make only one flying geese at a time except the Fast Flying geese method, so there you would end up with all four flying geese having the same goose fabric, even if you made the sky fabrics scrappy. As far as how to place your fabrics for sewing, with all these methods you place your sky and goose fabrics right sides together.
