Did she ever mention which colorway she was most in need of? I missed the part where she needed any 12 1/2" block so I may have missed that part too...

I, too, have been trying, and failing, to get an acceptable block. I got so frustrated I quit trying but will try again. I think this "cool off" will help!

Hi. My name is Carla. I've been reading the board for some time now, but only recently became an official member. I promised to make a block for Sherryl. I am a beginner quilter and had never attempted paper piecing. I fell in love with her star. I'm posting a photo of my first attempt so that everyone can have a good laugh along with me and am also posting a photo of my second attempt. I have pm'd Sherryl and let her know that she can have the second one if she wants it. I plan on making her one or two more but not sure when i will get them done. The first one took me 2 weeks and the second one, I completed in 2 to 3 hours.

Thank you for the PM and thank you for the laugh - I truly appreciate all of your hard work. Paper piecing is a separate critter of its own for sure. Thanks for sharing both of your blocks. It shows your determination and that you acheived your goal in the end. I love the colors and your block looks great.

Thanks again for your help.
Sherryl
