From Violet Craft:

The Flying Falcons Quilt is a modern homage to traditional “flying geese” and is inspired by the falcons in the Brambleberry Ridge print, Timber Valley. 

The Flying Falcons Quilt is made of 6 Flying Falcons in a circle formation on a white background. In the cover quilt and instructions, each Falcon uses 6 different fabrics all in the same color, ranging in saturation from dark to light. The fabrics are in a layout based on their saturation with the deepest color saturation pointing out of the circle.  

Depending on your fabric choices, many variations are possible ranging from using only 2 or 3 different fabrics to a completely scrappy version.

The Flying Falcon is a building block to thousands of unique designs.  Just creating the illlustrations gave me a dozen ideas for different layouts. I’d love to see yours.  #flyingfalconsquilt

Finished quilt measures 60" x 60".

Fabric used on cover is Brambleberry Ridge by Violet Craft for Michael Miller Fabrics.
