That paper piecing was such good fun! I've had a very enjoyable afternoon learning how to do it!
I'm going to try to get the picture on of what Ive done so I apologise in advance if I make a complete mess of it. lol! ( my daughter was here to help me with the last pics! ...........here goes

Those blocks are lovely! I haven't tried paper piecing, yet.

You did a fine job of paper piecing Karenmay. I can't believe that's your first attempt. :)

I especially like the one in the bottom left, with the roses in the fabric. They're all so pretty!

I have tried several times ............not yet :oops: :? Yours are great

Paper piecing was so hard for me to learn! I still get mixed up! The results are gorgeous, so I'm making it a rule to piece a block every week until I learn it inside and out. Otherwise I'll forget what I learned. I remember bringing my laptop to my sewing place and going over and over the instructions! What did I do wrong?!! Why isn't it working? I was so impressed when I finally got a block, that I have to master it! Maybe in 20 years?!! 30?!!

SOOOOO Very Pretty, GO GIRL, I've never done paper piecing,

very nice pp still intimadates me Maybe after the holidays when things quiet down I'll try and conquor it

Karenmay - I'm so glad you like pp. It is addictiing. i'm an addict! :lol:
Now if I could just get regular piecing to work................................. :P

I haven't gotten around to paper piecing. Those are very very nice!

Those are just...just LOVE-ly. :D So gentle. (Can a quilt square be gentle?) :D

Very nice. Hearts are my favorite quilt block! Sara

i said some very 'bleepable' words the first project i tried, but then i got going and now i'm looking for another project to try!

glad you enjoy it!

Karenmay
I'm in love with your color choices, BEAUTIFUL. Oh my gosh, it reminds me of a English Garden. I would say good-luck on your paper pieceing, but you don't need it. (From your Results), your well on your way. I guess Hearts are on point, sort-to-speak of. I'm working on a Valentine quilt, myself. Of course Hearts, but mine our applique. Also Thanks for your picture, Now I know the person that introduced me to ladyfingers and P&G Tips. Beautiful Job, Keep Sharing.

LOL fabricluvr, :lol: :lol: :lol:

These are nice! Have you done anymore to make a quit?

I love, love, love to paper piece! It's so accurate and systematic. Looks like you get good results from it as well!

Nice job! I haven't advanced that far yet but when I do hopefully mine will come out as well as yours.

Karenmay, Your blocks are lovely!!! Great looking first project. :thumbup: :thumbup: Are you addicted yet?? :lol: :lol:
I LOVE paper piecing. I made a miniature quilt for my secret sister at quilt guild. I can't wait to get started on another pp project.

good job, i love paper peicing to....

I have never tried paper piecing either and want to real bad...need to find a shop locally that carries the supplies to teach you how :)

I have learned alot by checking out the following sites on the web which gives detailed instructions for every kind of quilting application you would ever want to try including paper piecing. On Quilterscache.com Marcia not only has a bazillion free blocks but step by step instructions on how to do EVERYTHING! Quilterscache is my FAVORITE site. I also found paper piecing patterns for blocks at www.paperpanache.com/guests. Check these out. You might find you don't need the quilt shop or other lessons to learn how to do a particular application. Good luck.
