I have just finished three PPing wall hangings.. finally !!

the first one is a small hanging of a dozen Christmas ornaments....
I had just put the sashings and first border on and was just about to add the final border when I took a really good look at it.......
OMG, 1/2 was facing north and the 1/2 was facing south !!!!
(all depends, could be east & west).......

so I decided that the best thing to do was continue by making it a table topper so it can be seen right from either end of the table.

Don't you just hate yourself when you do something so stupid ?

#2 is a bit larger and I got this one completed without it being upside down or backwrds

..... this one took a long time just to find all the fabrics needed, like the grasses, the rocks and the different skies and waters..... it really was a fun project.

#3.....I saw this one in a McCall's magazine when someone sent in their finished hanging for a "show & tell" in the mag. I fell in love with it and then started on an intense search for the pattern...no one seemed to have it...

finally, found a lady in Pa and she sent it to me. This was made entirely from stash..and was a ball to do.

Hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them.

Love them

Those are lovely! I really like the lighthouses. Can you send a link for all three of them? Pretty Please! I had to go back and look at the ornament one again. If you would not have mentioned it, I would not have noticed.

Particularly love the lighthouses!

I especially love the lighthouses. Where did you get the patterns?

I love to paper piece and these are so much fun! I want them all!:)

all are lovely - you found the perfect solution for the ornaments.
love the lighhouses & the forests is a close 2nd.

That's it. I think we should kidnap her and hold her until she sends a link. :-)

I love Paper Piecing, except for the mess it makes on the floor of my sewing room. I especially like the jeweled forest.

the Christmas Ornaments was a kit by Grannie Suzannie designs, at www.Granniesuzannie.com

The lighthouses was a pattern called the Sampler Lighthouses, also from Granniesuzannie.

The last one as I mentioned is called the "Jeweled Forest" and I went looking but couldn't find it. I do know that it was in a December issue of McCall's Magazine and I believe that it was 2009.

Hope that helps and thanks also for all the compliments...
errors and all !!!!!

No errors in my eyes. They are all stunning.

Love all of your work! Great jobs.

These are really pretty. Great Job.

MJ, those are all gorgeous! I think I'm in love with the jeweld forest! You did a fabulous job on all of them. I had to look to see what you were talking about on the ornaments..Great table topper though!

All 3 are nothing short of delightful.

Those are all so pretty. I love the last one. What beautiful colors. Great job on all and thanks for sharing.

I like them all, especially the jeweled forest. Beautiful work!!!

Beautiful!!! I can see why you looked so hard to find the tree pattern, it is great...but then so are the other two!!

All are BEAUTIFUL!!! but I just LOVE the "Jeweled Forest"

Really makes me want to tackle PPing. Yours are great.

Very nice. I love them.

What fantastic quilts! You do beautiful work!

you've been busy, great job.

You have inspired me to keep trying to squeeze pp'ing into my list of things to do. Your lighthouse panel is very, very nice but the Jeweled Forest takes my breath away. I love those colors. Thanks so much for sharing. Your work is wonderful!

I am leaving the board now to go find the pattern for Jeweled Forest. Bye.

Ok, so it's going to be harder than I thought. Anyone have a copy they are willing to sell?

:lol: You don't tackle paper-piecing, you approach it, sneak up on it then cuddle it until you have decided this is a new technique that you want to adopt.

I agree that they are all very pretty! I would not have noticed that the tops were going two different directions if you had not mentioned it. I love your color choices- you are very good at color!!!

Gorgeous quilts. Particularly love the trees. Thank you for sharing.

I love them all :D:D:D

They are beautiful!! But the lighthouse WOW! :thumbup:

Ents- just say the upside down ones are dredles! Then both December holidays are covered. ! Lol

Ohhhh! So lovely!! I just learned to pp with the BOM and I adore it. :-) You do wonderful work! :thumbup: :thumbup:

I really like all three of them but my favorite is the Jewelled Forest.

those are great! I'm a pp'ing fan too. good job.

Great job, they are all fantastic. I love paper piecing too, so much fun.

They are all wonderful but my favorite is the forest. So much inspiration on this board. I don't want to leave my sewing room I have so many things I want to do.

They're all beautiful, the time you spent tracking down the pattern for the Jeweled Forest was certainly well spent!

My favorite was the trees, all there very pretty!
