I agree with Tartan. Hope that you can get the slight waves on the edges out with steam and starch. GREAT job.

That looks great! I did some paper pieicing last weekend and once I got back into it, I realized how much fun it is. I hadn't done any for years.

You did a good job. It should help your son when he is so far from home.

Cover the centre with a button or similiar . Have you hit it with a hammer, it does make it go flatter.

What a difficult first in paper piecing to do, love it.
