Can you feel how close we are to putting together a finished the Nordic Crossing Quilt? These week we are making the last of ours blocks with 32 flying geese. Next week we will finally start piecing all the rows together and start to see how the quilt will look when its finished. So exciting! This is where I get really antsy and am just ready to put it all together to see how it looks. So close, but until then just lay out all your flying geese and admire them 😉
