OMG- how much did you have to drink to get that beautiful project done? My advice on paper piecing is this- drink often and in copious amounts - and keep your laptop handy to email Tirnhi in Guam many, many, many times to get a 'blesseded' 12 inch block completed. Oh, and buy about a trillion yards of fabric so that you can do the same block for an entire weekend.
This all stems from a block of the month that was paper piecing. My finished one is adorned with wine bottles, wine goblets and lots of empty chocolate wrappers :):):):)
In all seriousness, you did an outstanding job!
