First of all, to katier 825 I just want to say that is a fantastic quilt. You did a wonderful job and should be very pleased.
To momto4, I want to say please don't be afraid to try paper piecing. As long as you don't start with a teeny tiny pattern (small pieces can be tricky), it is really very easy, fun, and produces very accurate results. My suggestion is that you start with Carol Doak's beginner's book "Show Me How To Paper Piece". She literally walks you through the process, step by step, and you end up with a cute wall hanging. By the time you finish this ittle wall hanging you will feel completely confident with paper piecing. Just make sure you buy the Quarter Inch ruler and use the post card trick. Have fun.
