Thanks everyone! If I wouldn't make sooo many errors I could probably get more done. The block I'm currently working on is no exception.

They are coming together nicely! I shied away from paper piecing for many years, then finally decided to learn. Am self taught from books, it took awhile but once it clicked I found i love it. Now I always have at least one paper piecing project in the works, one I have been working on for awhile is almost finished so am planning ahead for the next one I am going to start.

Use the cheapest paper you can find at an office supply store. I still have a little left when they use to give out a rim of cheap paper for a minimum purchase. Your seams will get better. It does take practice but you look like you are improving. 3 rips is my limit. Be sure to do the short stitches. Makes ripping easier. There was also a blog posted here about folding the paper so there was no paper to remove. Very interesting.
