    Congrats on your first square. P/P can be a bit of a brain twister at first. But typically once you've "got it" you will start looking a patterns in a whole new way.. Nothing that you can't do. Do keep posting your work.

    Lovely! Turned out very good, I think. I did this pattern (I am new to pp as well) a few months ago and made a Christmasy candle mat by placing the squares as you have yours.

    If you hadn't drawn attention to the fact that it wasn't lined up I wouldn't have caught it. It has the illusion that it is spinning. NICE job.

    I'm really hooked on PPing and I think the Carol Doak method is the best. I've tried many and keep coming back to her's. You sure did good on your first try. It's always a bit of a "b" when putting all the pieces together, but Carol's hints and technique sure helps.

    Oh! that looks wonderful! I haven't tried paper piecing yet. It sure looks like something I need to learn.
