    Wow, nice job, Tricky! I, too, love to paper piece. Right now I'm working on one, half the blocks are paper pieced, and I'm at the painful part of ripping off the paper. It's a little dull....

    What kind of paper do you use for your paper piecing. I am using a light weight computer paper as I haven't found anyplace that sells foundation paper in bulk??

    Yes taking the paper off is a drag but I have found if I do it while I'm watching TV with my husband it isn't as onerous.

    I did that last night, but truly, there isn't anything good on TV!! Might have to put in a movie tonight.

    "ll let you know when we are headed through Utah--probably next fall as we are heading east through Canada starting at the end of March. We crossed over the top of the Utah panhandle this past September on our way to the Grand Coulee Dam. We were totally amazed by the countryside-did not expect the prairie we found around Spokane.

    The only good thing on up here last night was CSI the original and even it wasn't great. Movies are a good idea they take longer so more paper can come off!!!

    A movie it is. I have one I borrowed from a friend, I'll get into that tonight. Maybe even be able to get some sewing done after.

    One of our local quilt stores is having a sale tomorrow, so I can't stay up too late! Better be there early!!!
