Oh, practice is so important. This BOM is the first and only time I have ever done this technique. I really need practice. I call this English paper torture. [ATTACH=CONFIG]354196[/ATTACH]

Carol.........What an excellent paper pieced block for your first try!! I am so proud of you for trying & making such a nice block. I promise you that the more you try this method, the more you are going to like it!! When I tried my first one I thought what a disaster, but stayed with it & now I prefer pp'ing over any other methed. Thank you for sharing your wonderful block with all of us today. Nice Work.

WOW!! Love your fabric choices, the flip flop fabric is wonderful & you have matched your other color's to it so well. Nice work thomp116. Geez......I didn't think of it as only being four more blocks for this year. My where has the time gone too. I hope we have all been having a good time. Before you know it, it will be time to pick a theme for next year!! Thank you so much for sharing with all of us today.

Jennily............I just love your finished August block for the 2012 BOM Calendar project. I just read you new instruction's for the glue method & it sounds really good. You are presenting such a wonderful lesson in QAYG quilting & I know that we all enjoy it so much. I haven't started mine yet, but I am getting anxious to do so. Thank you for all of your terrific lesson's & thank you for sharing your beautiful August block.
