Here is my helpful household hint when making some of these blocks.... if the words paper piecing shows up anywhere on the instructions, start drinking heavily until the next block of the month shows up. It is just easier this way, trust me :):) oh, and you can speed panic write questions to the wonderful ladies on this site to help you through the block. After the last one, I'm pretty sure that I will just pay someone else to make it for me hahaha... uh, Terri in Guam is very helpful and Barb M in Canada is a pro at paper piecing.
