I love the material you used. I have enjoyed paper piecing since two friends taught about 6 years ago. Hey, I like your picture with the fish. I use to have a pair of hip boots also and spent every summer in Montana on the Madison River with my family, usually following my father. We did a lot of fly fishing but also "drowned a few worms" just enjoying fishing the clear streams. It was always our great dream to go to Alaska to fish for trout there. I married an Army officer and we never returned to the west. But I got my quilting roots out there and have enjoyed sharing that training as we traveled. (Still miss my boots and pole!)
