How it’s built
Four quarters, each made of two geese stacked on top of each other, then rotated a quarter turn from one quarter to the next.
Two goose colors (A and B) emphasize the rotation.
Sewing tips
- Make all sixteen sky corners at once, then assemble the eight geese.
- Sew each quarter, then join the quarters like a four-patch, matching the points at the center.
