thismomquilts--no I don't paper piece. I have tried it, but don't care for the steppy parts--getting paper pattern, pulling off back of paper etc. I don't like to spend any extra money (would rather buy fabric :lol: ) My piecing is far from perfect.
quiltwoman--I don't cross stitch because I couldn't focus on the small graphs etc. If you want to check out some tututorials--Rhonda does some nice techniques and easily undersood.
Thanks to all for your kind words.
