instructions for sewing together goose tracks pattern

Post by davids » Sat Jan 24, 2009 8:51 am

I have a quilt pattern for goose tracks but don't have instructions for the easiest way to assemble the square. Does anyone have the instructions? The pattern is form the 1930's.

David, look at this link, there's a pillow on a shelf, is that the pattern? If so, Egg Money quilts has instructions for it. All the patterns in this book are from that time frame.

Here's a close up of one I did. Don't look too closely at the seams!

Forgot to add, in Egg Money Quilts by Eleanor Burns, this is called Turkey Tracks.

Thanks! After making it, I know why the word "Turkey" is part of the name! I'm wondering if this is the same as the Goose Tracks David was asking about. A lot of blocks have multiple names.
