Here you go!
Now that you see the pictures... you can see how really easy this block is... I wasn't sure about the tiny flying geese... but they worked out just fine!
This is Katy's
And here's mine

Wow this is a real great block as a matter of fact I have 40 of them already made for another quilt i am working on...I use a ruler called the "Wing Clipper" for trimming down flying geese in sizes 1/2 x 1 to 5 x 10 it is a really good tool. Mine are 6" blocks so a 12 inch will be a piece of cake...
