Very pretty blocks and they have great contrast. Yes, paper piecing is lots of fun!

I started paper piecing before I heard that it is supposed to be difficult - wouldn't dare try certain designs the old fashioned way, when my points come out so great on paper! Your MCs are great, keep up the good work, PPing can be addictive when the results are so spectacular!

Your blocks are beautiful. Learning to PP can be tough. I know it was for me too. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing.

I pieced a Mariner's Compass block earlier this Spring. I realized if I took my time, it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Your blocks are beautiful!

Me neither. I love the results you can get from PP but not doing it.....like you, I took a class and did it in class and never again. Something about that reversing thing, I just can't wrap my brain around it.
