I like it too. Right now I am in the middle of doing some of the Freedom Blocks for my brother's quilt and those little pieces can be a pistol! Today, without exaggeration, it took me almost a half hour to get the very last section
done for the Patriot's Day Star block. Not sure how many times I took a seam out and re-did it. Realized I had made the mistake of cutting the fabric wrong and it kept stretching to the left on those last few stitches, causing the end of the seam to be a tad more than an 1/8th of an inch instead of the 1/4".
Paper piecing is my favorite way of getting those flying geese exactly right.
