My Carol Doak Paper Pieced Oversize King
 

I asked my daughter to teach me paper piecing. I just dived right in! Picked a bunch of patterns from Carol's "300 Paper-Pieced Quilt Blocks." Picked fabric colors and was off to the races. The blocks turned out so cute that my daughter decided it should be an over-sized King, on the off chance she could end up buying it! So came up with needed border size and threw in HST strip to the border! I think it turned out bright and flashy! Now she has to throw it on her Avante and quilt it! heehee....or maybe she'll teach me that too!

THAT came out absolutely stunning. Love that you chose black sashing to make the colors pop.

Beautiful quilt. Can she teach me paper piecing too, you did a very good job.

Haha...she says she would LOVE to come to New Zealand!

I love it. Paper piecing is so much fun. Your quilt is beautiful!!!!

Stunning and beyond!

Absolutely beautiful.

I love it, I'm buying the patterns

I've sort of gotten addicted to paper piecing too - though I hate pulling the paper off.

Great job, very pretty!

You have done a beautiful job. The quilt is gorgeous. I love the orange color with the purple too.

What an amazing quilt that is. Just beautiful! I am learning paper piecing myself right now. Just started on a few little pieces, but I can tell I am going to love it. :)

Love your beautiful PP quilt! Just so stunning!

That is just stunning, I love it. :)

Wow that is really beautiful! Welcome to the paper piecing addiction:)

Takes my breath away. That is absolutely beautiful.

Your quilt is stunning, love her books. I use that book a lot in swaps. I just love your colors.

Your colors and piecing made one fabulously beautiful quilt.

Gorgeous quilt. Love Carol Doaks patterns.

It is beautiful! Great job and it is so wonderful to have a daughter to share in your quilting endeavors.

Beautiful! I love Carol Doaks way of PP. After using a few others methods, I love the way she tells you a rectangle to cut so I can precut the fabrics into kits on days I don't feel like sewing. That black sashing makes the quilt pop. Good choice.

Thats gorgeous! I love paperpiecing too.Keep going!

It came out really nice. Love the black sashing

Beautiful! I love the way the colors pop on the black.

That is really beautiful. I still haven't done paper piecing...one of these days maybe!

Try the "fold the paper and sew along the fold" method that you never have to sew through the paper! Here's the link:
