    I have just started paper piecing and like you, have a seam ripper best friend. You did good!!! These are very nice - it is fun but frustrating at times with great results if all goes as planned.

    Wow, wow and wow! I haven't taken the step of faith to start paper piecing, but I love the projects that you did for a newbie! And I do have seam rippers, so I'm not sure what's stopping me. . . Nice finished pieces!

    Oops - forgot to mention, in case you do not already know about Carol Doak that you can find all kinds of free paper piecing patterns on her website. I have made several of her blocks and have more to do. One thing that is nice about her patterns is that she gives the dimensions of the fabric piece needed for each number in the block which made it so much easier for me. CarolDoak.com

    Paper piecing is so much fun. I love your projects. I especially love the tulip pot.
