ok.....I'll bite.....they look fine to me.....where? Don't bother....It is great...Nice design....but did it have to be pp??? :shock: :D

ok....I'm computer illiterate...where is the pattern?

it's on the other link... but this is wha it looks like...Cool huh?

it's easier to paper piece it but i can make you templates if you'd prefer to do it that way.

Gee .....thanks....but I will give it a go.....It will look nice if done well...If I can't then we'll chat. K?

i made this today. if i can, i know you can. :P

Tim it looks great and nice to see some bright colors for a change and no browns

Come on Tim I know you can say pink if you try hard

Patrice we all know you can you can do anything. Its lovely as usual love the pink.

Just for that, the next one is in brown and other earth tones.

When you see me put pink in a quilt, call homeland security cause someone kidnapped me and is impersonating moi.

now that's an interesting idea. i hadn't even considered putting it up for auction.

make me an offer.
:twisted:

Wow, Tim, I love the colors. I tried to PP the other day. Didn't come out very well. guess i need to practice more. What type of paper do you use when you PP? I didn't have anything but regular copy paper, maybe the thickness was the problem.

the thicker the paper, the smaller the stitches need to be so it'll tear off easily.

i've been tearing apart the fanfold paper with carbons in between designed for dot matrix printers. the individual sheets are 15 lb paper. (normal copy paper is 20 lb) i bought a HUGE box years and years ago to use for a lot of different things. i'm almost out, though, so i'm going in search of tracing paper light enough to tear easily but heavy enough to survive a printer.

next stop ... WallyWorld

I use regular copy paper also. It hasn't been an issue. As Patrice says, instead of 2.5 on the old stitch length, I use between 1.5 and 2.

You might try a office supply store and see about a package of 15 wt. Copy paper. One ream will last you probably 10 years.

Here's mine. Have bodgied up the points a bit but never mind, a blind man would be pleased to see it :lol:

Decided to make the BOMs for a quilt for my grandson, so below is what I got so far, am catching up. Is done in brights, grandson likes in your face colours :)

Also got some buzzy bee fabric in it, cause what's a NZ childrens quilt without a buzzy bee

I wish you lived next door to me. I could show you how in about twenty minutes. My instructions seem to leave a little bit to be desired.

Maybe you can find an article on paper piecing and take it from there?

tim

I wish someone lived close by me that could teach me! LOL My past experiences with paper piecing almost ended up with broken windows in my house! :shock:

WWWWWWWWWooooooooooooooWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Well, I did it!!! :D I made templates and started cutting the pieces yesterday, finished that job this morning and have been stitching all day! Phew! LOL I thought I was going to have to hand piece this but it did go together ok by machine so that saved alot of time....but it still took me long enuf.....and YES I KNOW! It would have been quicker to paper piece it! LOL

Very challenging and fun block Tim!!!!
