Oh such fun to see some more folks joining in the chatter here! (I've been away for a few days)

Hopefully we are finding a few block patterns to try out? I know there are lots of you creative ladies (and gents?) out there! :) I'm looking forward to some sewing time next week, and try some myself.

I have been looking for blocks and I have made up a few. I've added borders to make them 12 1/2".

Oh how nice Rhonda! You do such nice work. I tried out that second block of yours today. Since I am new to pp'ing it was very slow going for me. LOL! Mine had very different coloring. I also tried out an appliqued maple block. We will see if either of those make the cut.

Rhonda all three are beautiful

Ronda~ your blocks are terrific! :)

Wow! Rhonda - I like all three, too!!! I've never done paper piecing . . . of course, I've been told it's easy (yeah, sure, right ?????).

I have my fabric washed and pressed - all except for the cream background (not one inch of that could be found in my sewing nook - imagine that!! :D). Still haven't made it to the fabric store yet - I guess I get side tracked too easy!

Tomorrow is another day though!!

Thanks you guys! I've had yellows, greens, oranges and reds all over my studio for a few days! I even threw in a couple of purples...what fall colors are you all using for your blocks?

I have purples, burnt red, gold and several shades of green dug out right now. Mi love bold and vibrant colors, I love your color combinations

I have the bold and vibrant colors, too, as well as some interesting browns!

I have two sets finished to show and tell. The one small one was playing with the pp'ing one like rwquilts made. I don't think I will continue on with that set. I really had the dickens on a time doing it. Rhonda, you are a talented woman to do that technique! I honestly think I would rather do regular templates than to feel so inadequate. !!

The funny thing is my avatar is pp'ed and I did fine with it.
