They say it is easy, I haven't tried it, but would love to learn. Hope you enjoy it in the days to come...

I made a Winter Wreath Placemat with it and fully finished the top of one and got a decent start on the second. I had originally signed up for the class in 2006 and DH got called out of town at the last minute so I lost my childcare and was finally able to arrange childcare on the same day as the class is offered for today.

I have downloaded a paper pieced pattern for Storm at Sea and want to make a queen sized one for my sister.

So excited and just wanted to share that I learned a new quilting skill today!

I'm so glad you had fun, I love paper piecing! I also agree you should share a pic cause we are all interested to see your new project, sounds like it was a very productive class that you were able to finish it.

I found the paper piece pattern for Storm at Sea at Quilterscache. It looks so easy and accurate to do know that I know how to paper piece. And paper piecing is not hard at all once you get your head around it. With an instructor I got it in no time.

As for pictures, here is a picture of the one placemat top that I finished.
