Kass I thought of you on our vacation in Vegas. We went to the Circus Solei with the Beatles when they played Abby Lane and your great block

Thank you for the comments - and the new knowledge of dresses with huge seams!
The blocks are absolutely beautiful - they are all awesome!
I like PP but I hate making 12 of anything! That is why I stick to the booms - 19 different materials and blocks!

Amen! can't agree more, this is why I was first attracted to this swap 12 of the same block no matter how cool is mind numbing to me.

Time to work on another dress with 5/8" ---
I’ve needed some motivation to sew my great granddaughter a dress, I love the peasant look of this one! She’s 4, they might be close in age.

but very beautiful. I have a coaster that’s paper pieced for Christmas. Might take the plunge, but I don’t know how much closer to crazy I want to get.

Ugh... I did the whole Farmer's Wife 1930's quilt and have stack of nearly 100 PP'd blocks. I learned to PP making those blocks, but even after all that practice, I still don't like it. I'd rather piece, any day.

I found a large glass of wine helps with paper piecing. Hope to get all the sections sewn together on 5 of them today then will put away while I work on another small project.
