    That is just beautiful...I have yet to try paper piecing - will put that on my to do list. What do you like most about that technique?

    Thank you for your kind words Vicki and Cathy.

    I love the perfect points you get without really trying. :) I just think it's a very precise technique. For another thing, my blocks always come out the same size when I paper piece. Not so much when I don't. LOL

    Very beautiful! I love the colors. I have never paper pieced, but you make me want to put it on my list of attempts. That is awesome looking. If sis don't like it, you can send it my way.

    This is the original pattern. It called for stars in the center, but I thought with the colors I'd chosen, a garden theme would work better for me. Luckily I had a paper pieced flower pattern in the right block size.
