This pattern is a finishing pattern option for the 2023 No. CO Shop Hop quilt. It includes the center medallion, flying geese borders and the top and bottom quilt borders only. The “Let’s Piece Geese Quilt” was designed by Lori Jonker and was given out during the NoCo Shop Hop June 1-11, 2023 to participants in the No. CO Shop Hop 2023. Several participant shops carry the quilt pattern and block patterns/ kits for sale if you missed the shop hop but wish to make the quilt.
The creation of the reverse applique Goose was Eye of the Beholder’s contribution to the shop hop quilt.
Our reverse applique goose flies boldly across the center of the quilt with his wings spread in flight, leading the pieced inner border of flying geese. The goose makes a bold and noble statement, no matter the fabrics you choose.
