Does it prove I am a newbie by telling you I dont even know what a Y seam is? I am also doing the Craftsy BOM and I did learn that I HATE paper piecing! I havent even finished the April blocks because I am hating it! However, I will move on and the point of doing it at all is because I shy away from stuff as well and am hoping to learn some new skills so I will advance past the standard square or HST stuff.
