very pretty!!! my first paper piecing was a wall hanging that I hand pieced. I figured it would be easy to sew a straight line. From now on, any and all paper piecing is done by machine!

Your table topper is really nice, a very good job. I'm sure your could do the NYB, no problem. You could always do a table runner for starters. Thanks for sharing.

it is gorgeous! I haven't tried paper piecing, I really want to... how difficult was it?

Thanks for looking.
