This is a 12" square mini quilt. I've never paper pieced before and I'm not sure I had fun doing it. However, I'm not happy with the colors I chose for the project so now I'm going to have to make another one.

GReat! The different size leafs are something I haven't seen before. One of my next projects is going to be a leaf quilt! Hope it was easy to make.
