Oh yes! I was planning to make a Dr. Who quilt for my daughter and printed out 16 assorted block patterns. The first one I tackled was fairly easy, but then, I took the weeping angel and it had OVER 100 pieces! I knew I could not handle this so I lay the full block pattern down and traced over (or create) much more reasonable pieces. Then I cut them apart and added seam allowances. By using a multi-toned grey fabric, I achieved the same varied colors without the extreme frustration of paper piecing tiny bits. I then did the remaining 14 blocks in the same manner.
