Perfect for all seasons, the Silly Goose quilt block can be dressed up for any holiday or special occasion. I recommend using solids or blenders for the goose body, and showing off your favorite statement print in the bandana. Make one into a pillow or farmer’s market tote bag. Make several into a whole flock of geese! The pattern uses quarter circle blocks and assumes some familiarity with sewing curves. The block is traditionally pieced and finishes at 12” x 12”.
