Yours is beautiful & calm compared to my "in your face" version, but mine is playing nicely with the others so far.

I have one of those, and when I lay out the blocks, it on the side and I have a couple calmer ones top bottom and other side. And it works great.

Thimblebug I really like it! It's neat how you changed the look of the block the shape really appears in the center!

Well, here is my first, itty bitty square... As I have professed, paper piecing is NOT my forte`...As you can see, kinda short on a couple corners. Ya could say this is a practice pc...lolo Good thing I have plenty of paper & fabric..;)

OK...Thanks to Patrice posting the foundations for a 12 1/2" block, I went with that. It's not perfect, but I think it will do. There's a couple corners that are a wee bit short, but it does measure 12 1/2"...think they might sew into the seam ok. I guess like CajunBear says, 'I have a mental block when it comes to paper-piecing' - it just seems hard to me..lol Anyway, it's done. Don't be too critical of me...:(

Everyone's blocks are so pretty! Amazing the totally different looks possible by varying color placement. Can't decide which I like best.

HAHA Thanks. If they keep posting paper pieced blocks on here!! maybe I'll get the hang of it..haha This is NOT a suggestion tho!
