I just started gathering my fabric for this BOM. Going to try my first attempt to paper piece. As you said in the past, "It's EASY". Wish to were here to guide me.

I am doing the mystery train stash buster group. I think I will try to use stuff from my stash for this. Since it is supposed to be things out of my comfort zone I think I will use fabrics out of my comfort zone too. I love, love batiks and I think I will try not to put any in this quilt. I have tons of fabric from yard sales and that was given to me. It is all stuff that just isn't my style. Hopefully I will start in a couple of days.

Thanks gals. :) I thought about doing that, so depending on what block it is will determine what I do. I found a patriotic section in Mary Jo's that had more 1800 type pics I was thinking about as well.

Your block turned out wonderfully beautiful IMHO. I love it simply said.

I was only going to do 1 block each month but when I saw the pattern for January and that directions were given for PP & traditional I thought I'd do 1 each way.
Well the PP turned out like it should have but the trad. one didn't. Turned those segments every which way & never could get it so it is what it is.
