Love the colours and pattern you chose...and I can't believe this is only the 2nd x you've paper pieced. Very impressive.

* I was going to abbreviated "paper pieced" - pp'd, but that just doesn't sound right in my head...lol!

That's beautiful. I particularly love the colors. I have EQ7 but haven't learned how to use it yet. That's encouraging...
