I hope you don't mind & become upset but I thought I would let you know before you go on any further that the Hovering Birds block doesn't look right in the bottom row. The lighter triangle seems to be in the wrong position.
Not at all, I didn't like the colors of this block anyway, so I think I'll just redo it. Thank's again.

I've got #51 done. My scan darkened up the top corners, don't know why...whoever does when the computer acts up!??###%%#!!

BTW, every once and awhile you'll see a basting stitch on an outside block. If there is a pp with just one little block on it, I baste around it in the area between the edge of the block and the seam allowance. It's so the piece will stay put and not wrinkle or fold when I'm joining it to another piece.

That is how I sew my paper piecing also. I usually crop out the scan for this posting so the little thread doesn't show. Helps me get the margins straight. Violet

And here's #52!

Did anyone else use the pp pattern from the Yahoo group? One of the pieces is backwards. It's the piece to the right of units C & E. You just have to put the material on the same side as the printing and it will work fine.

Yes, I discovered that too. I have had problems with a few of the pp patterns but I really think my blocks are better because of them and really appreciate whoever made them. Violet
