One of my first quilting projects was a sampler-type quilt, which introduced me to various block types, including paper piecing. While I really like the result, making an entire quilt that way would be quite tedious (to me).
I made the wall quilt "Over by the Pond" for my sister's birthday last year, and that was entirely paper piecing. I was sick of pp by the time it was finished, but it was a beautiful project.
