    Default My first Paper Piecing Project

    This is one block of many for my first paper piecing quilt I'm working on. The pattern is called Eyes of March from quilterscache.com. After a few test blocks, I feel very comfortable working with paper piecing! As soon as I stop playing with the "new board" I'll get back to finishing up the quilt!

    Thanks everyone! I'm finding it to be a little time consuming because it takes me an hour or so for one block. Maybe I'm just being too careful not to mess up

    It's very pretty. Is paper piecing hard? I'm a little intimidated by paper piecing since I've never actually seen it done; I've only seen the results.
