Approx. 19"x 23" |
If you're curious, this is how I did it.
Fussy cut the elephants from the Caravan fabric. Size approx 9"x 12". The side strips are 1 1/2" wide. You will want to sew these on first. |
Sew 1 1/2" strips to 4 1/2" strips (light green). Once strips are sewn on, I cut them to 7" long x 5" wide |
Cut 5" blocks |
Sew the block together and press. |
Fold in half and make sure the the correct color face each other. Teal to teal. |
Navy to navy |
Stitch together and VOILA! Two-tone giant, dimensional, flying geese. |
This was done for top and bottom of the block. Make sure you flip the colors so that they line up. |
Cut a 5" square in half on the diagonal. Line it up so that about a 1/4" of the flying geese shows. It's okay if there is fabric hanging past the bottom. |
Once the bottom is secure, flip the edges up and press. |
Trim the excess that hangs below the bottom of the flying geese. |
Two-tone Gothic Geese! |
Peek under the big top! |
