Well not totally, since she had taken the New York Beauty block from Donna Duquette to create a color wheel. But I'll give her all credit here on the QB for designing a pretty color wheel. My center isn't exactly the same as hers, and my binding is typical of me, a decorative stitching. This was my first in using circles or curves. I found using the treadle extremely helpful for attaching the curve pieces. Paper piecing was done on a Singer 201, straight stitch quilting 201 and Davis NVF, and binding on Singer 224.

Wow Monica, you did a great job! Love the color wheel! I have never tried paper piecing! I bet that was a fun project to do! Are you going to use it for a wall hanging or a table topper? It is stunning - I don't think I'd put it on the table! I'd put it on the wall!
