Rip out and start over but easier because my adjoining pieces were already cut. Despite a lot of work I did enjoy learning. By December I am going to be a wiz in pp.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love seeing everyone's combination of fabrics - envy your talents in choosing choices of colors. thank you. |

Snow came in and gave me an excuse to sew. I am doing 2 stars each month and I want to use only dark blues and whites. This was a challenge. Points are not exact and I did not finish pressing and squaring but I am happy with both of them.

Sooo - hopefully attempt number 4 will be a success!
What fun!! Great work! I feel bad because so many had problems. I hope everyone keeps trying because paperpiecing is probably as close as one can get to perfect. :hunf: :XD: |

Thanks for the little encouragement to push myself. |
Jenniky and Marymc- Great Job. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
