I would do it again in a minute.

By the way, I have included a photo of my paperpieced centre (new york beauties) for a round robin quilt. It's on it's third round now, so I'm curious to see what's been added.......
Wow, see how beautiful your points are! Cheap doodle paper must be the way to go! Thanks for sharing!
