Easy Street Part 2

The 2nd set on instructions came out for Easy Street on Friday.  Today after the Pline family Christmas I started on it.  Making flying geese is one of my least favorite units to make.  But I decided to try Bonnie's technique and see if they turned out any better.

I bought both rulers that she recommended and went at it.  But still have troubles with them not turning out well.  I know part of the problem is hanging on to them too tightly when I put them through the sewing machine  After the first 10 they seemed to turn out better.  But my saving grace was the "Mini Fit to be Geese" ruler I got for my previous small group mystery.  The ruler is  from Open Gate at www.opengatequilts.com.  It really helps me true these up. 

So for now I have gotten started on them and will see how it goes until next Friday's instructions come out.
