Beautiful job. I used paper templates as well with 30s fabrics for my first one. I like the Connecting Threads paper piecing. I really enjoyed it because I just did it as I sat watching television at night. There was no pressure to rush or get it done but it really surprised me how fast the process was... probably because I wasn't rushed! lol Another thing I like about the paper piecing was you could cut all of your squares before you begin and even reuse the paper pieces - which are very reasonable at about $4 a pack. It was a fun process for me.
