Paper Piecing Sampler Quilt
#41
Here's another block to add to my "sampler", this one took a little while. It's so exciting to see them come together, it looks like they won't go together right, but then in the end it does. Now, do I rip off all the paper, or wait until I put the quilt together?

BTW, your piece is beautiful!

That is one pretty block! I love those colors. This is going to be some quilt...(some pig...from Charlotte's Web, just jumped in my head :lol: )

I forgot to add a thank you for the compliments :oops: :D
I leave my paper on...when I start sewing them together I remove paper from the seam lines before I press. It makes getting the little pieces out easier. If you leave the big pieces alone until the borders are on, it helps to stabilize the bias edges of the blocks, JMHO :wink:

Here is my latest addition to my pp'd sampler quilt and here's what they look like together so far. I know I'm going pretty slow on this but am plugging away. Any suggestions to make this look better?
