Happy accidents

I definitely feel like I've hit my stride with this now.  I added another chunk down the left-hand side, then more of the black and white bird fabric at the bottom.  

Then, in a most satisfying development, it turned out that the things which looked best over on the right-hand side were those little blocks based on flying geese. They were a happy accident: I made the geese, left them lying around, looked down and they had obligingly arranged themselves into the pairs, with one facing each way.  I love a bit of serendipity.
Almost there now.  I have, I hope, enough fabric for one more round but no more than that.

Hooray for serendipity. The flying geese blocks look wonderful on the right hand side!

It always comes out at the end. The first picture is slightly asymmetrical so I thought that was the way you were going to leave it. But, the flying geese add so much interest I can see why you wanted to include them.

I love how the bits that didn’t seem to fit in before now have found a home! It’s always a pleasure to watch your process.

A lovely color combination with just the right spacing of elements to show everything off. Good job, Kaja.
