Geese On The Edge Quilt – Handmade Quilts For Sale / Custom Made To Order
There’s just something about a Flying Geese On Th Edge Quilt that always captures my heart—and my Geese On The Edge Quilt is no exception. This pattern has quickly become a favorite of mine, and every time I make one, I find myself experimenting with different colors and layouts. Each one turns out beautifully unique, and that’s part of the magic of custom handmade quilts/ Quilts For Sale
The Making of Geese On The Edge
The construction of this quilt is both simple and complex—which is why I love it so much. The design itself is inspired by the traditional Flying Geese block, but instead of keeping the geese in neat little rows, I love the idea of them trailing off toward the edges. It creates this beautiful movement across the quilt, almost like a flock of geese in flight.
The tricky part? Making sure the geese still feel balanced while also having that falling-off-the-edge effect. I think that’s what makes this design so captivating. It’s not perfectly symmetrical—and that’s exactly what makes it perfect.
I typically free-motion quilt these with designs that compliment the direction of the geese, adding extra texture and visual interest. Sometimes I’ll do swirly, windy lines like a breeze pushing the geese along. Other times I’ll do modern straight-line quilting, with some of my fabulous Terrl Loy Rulers which really lets the piecing pop. Either way, the quilting is always done by hand (not computerized!) and completely one-of-a-kind.
Choosing Colors – Endless Possibilities
One of my favorite parts about making a Geese On The Edge Quilt is playing with color placement. It’s amazing how the entire vibe of the quilt can change depending on what color scheme you choose.
- Bold and Bright? Picture warm oranges, bright yellows, and deep blues — creating a bold statement piece full of energy.
- Soft and Subtle? Picture soft greys, light blues, and crisp whites — giving a calm and cozy feeling to the quilt.
- Moody and Dramatic? Black backgrounds with deep jewel tones like emerald, plum, and sapphire — creating a stunning, high-impact quilt.
I can also do this quilt in all neutral tones, using shades of whites, creams, and beiges. This gives it a modern minimalist look, letting the texture of the quilting do all the talking.
Built To Last – Handcrafted with Care
Like all of my quilts for sale , Geese On The Edge is built to be used, loved, and passed down. I always use:
- 100% Cotton Fabrics for the quilt top and backing.
- Cotton or Double-Batted Options for maximum coziness.
- Hand-Guided Free Motion Quilting (no computerized designs here!)
- Washed and Pre-shrunk to ensure minimal shrinkage once you get it home.
