Love the wonky houses. You must've had a lot of fun picking out each scrap to make the various elements. Really cute to look at. I have yet to do a paper pieced project or a bag, so kudoes to you.
I only do the birthing method on anything small like mug rug or coasters. I find that binding them takes more patience than I have and just isn't worth it.

The pattern was from a designer on craftsy called quilt art designs. It was actually really easy to put it together - pretty much everything lined up nicely. The advantage of being ’wonky’ houses is that even if something didn’t line up no one would know!
I really enjoy paper piecing - so much easier than patchwork.

Awesome finished projects. I had to laugh when you said, " I really enjoy paper piecing - so much easier than patchwork." I feel just the opposite of you....I've never gotten the hang of paper piecing but I keep trying.
Can't wait to see what you finish next. Thanks for sharing.

Love all the projects, but the houses steals my heart.
I always had trouble with bindings until this you tube showed me step by step, stitch by stitch, and used some glue to cheat with (lol)
