Stay At Home Round Robin Border 3


This week Anja of Anja Quilts hosted the SAHRR and her prompt was to make flying geese. Anja made beautiful and varied flying geese for her block! I LOVE flying geese, but I didn't want a lot of them landing on my quilt to distract from the Lynx Star center block. So I decided to keep them small and sparse.


I made 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch units


I added two lengthwise borders in the same red plaid and dark green as the plus blocks from last week, and the quilt now measures 46 x 51 inches. I am really enjoying these weekly challenges, and I'm not tired of working with Christmas colors! Go have a look at all the flying geese goodness from other participants on Anja's linky.

  2. I'm thoroughly enjoying the progress on each of the quilts! So many variations. I like your combination of the plus blocks and flying geese, and the bold red makes the center pop. Nice!

  3. That looks great, Linda! I really like how you combined your geese and plus blocks into one round. They surround your center block perfectly, but definitely don't distract from it!
