Love the block and fabrics you used. Your first attempt was quite a challenge and you did quite well. I have been PPing for many years so I understand the difficulty in getting those points to match. I would be very satisfied with this block.

Love it! Wish I could say that my first pp block had been that well done! I have decided we are too hard on ourselves. Many times I have been very tempted to cut in a million pieces something I have been working on and think it is terrible. Then a friend or my DH comes along and says it "looks good!"
Guess we just don't realize how lucky we are that we can make something and be proud of it
PP is a fun way to put blocks together.

That turned out nice!
No matter what, it's hard to match those points.
I finally started using a glue stick to line my pieces up because no matter how careful I thought I was, the pins would still distort them.
I use a glue stick because I'm too lazy to baste.
