This quilt was a group project from our quilting bee Quilty Circle of Bees for our member Magda and her second baby. We gifted Sofie this quilt while meeting at our sewing retreat from the Modern Patchwork Treffen in Denmark. Allison posted about it as well, so skip over and read her post about those Sewing Connections, too.
The inspiration came from this pin from Red Pepper Quilts Double Flying Geese Quilt from 07/2015. We used a paper pieced block as that is always a safe bet when sewing with a group or bee. Here is the PDF file in case you want to use it yourself.
The straight line quilting design again was based on a pin.

Beautiful quilt! Love flying geese, and the fabrics you used are great!
Thanks for sharing!
Ein sehr schönes und großzügiges Geschenk. Ich bin froh für Magda und es ist gut, dass ich in unserem The Bee Hive Schwarm die Idee eines Babyquilts in Frage gestellt habe, sonst hätte Sofie jetzt drei Stück. Stattdessen gabs von unserem Schwarm Spucktücher. =)
What a charming quilt! I think the quilting choices on it really enhance the final piece, too.
I love the way you quilted this! You seem to see those secondary designs that I often miss. High fives for great teamwork! (and chocolate ; ))
I love it! The colours are beautiful and the quilting is great! I love how the blocks all work together. I may make one like this. Thanks for sharing it with us.
