Great job! I love red and white together too. It's always striking looking.

You did a great job on your practice piece!
I will agree....anyone who hasn't tried it, HAS to try it. It's really NOT that hard! Heck, if I can do it, ANYONE can!

I was fairly pleased with the block I made. The middle was kind of wonky, but I figure that will just make it look "rustic"! Those of you who haven't tried paper piecing need to jump in and give it a shot--it's really fun to see the block develop as you add pieces, and the points and corners are pretty nearly perfect!

I cannot wait to see them--will you please post some pics for us?

I found a decent picture online of the wallhanging I'm (theoretically) going to make--or at least attempt to make. I'll post some pictures of my progress a little later.
