Sewing - potholders with on point square created using flying geese blocks

Another set of potholders for Christmas!!  These are not technically "Christmas potholders" but the colours certainly would lend themselves to that theme!!  I made this set from 4 large flying geese blocks which I created using one 8 3/4" square of the patterned fabric and four 4 5/8" squares of the red fabric.  I stitched two FG blocks together down the middle twice to create two blocks with on point squares.  The trimmings were just the right size for making the hanging loops.  I used a mostly red fabric for the backs and added little squares cut from those scraps to secure the loops.  Worked out perfectly!!  I used several layers of flannel for the inside and bound them by folding the backing to the the front and stitching all the way around.  I added quilting lines in the triangles in red thread and then a box with diagonals in brown thread in the center on point square.  I see on this front potholder it is hard to see where the seam is on the front - the line closest to where the diagonal lines meet in the center is where the seam goes up and down.  I really like how they turned out.  It would be fun to make a quilt with on point squares created using this technique.    Therese
