Our guild had our monthly meeting on Monday night. One of our members taught us to Paper Piece, which I have never done before. I think that I am totally addicted now!!

She put together a little kit and I came home on Monday night and finished it!!

What a beautiful job you did. This is English PP done by hand correct? As opposed to Foundation PP done by machine where you stitch directly on to the paper pattern.

Great job! Your flower looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

These can be a great take-along project to put together so that you always have something to do with your hands. It's amazing how just a few minutes here and there add up to get through a project. Many work on these for many years before putting together a large quilt. Keep us updated when you do more.
