    There are snail's trail blocks in my avatar. I decided to paper piece them, because it's a hard block to get right. Congratulations to you for mastering it.

    I dont know about mastering it, that was the first the first block I made and I already spent 4 hours ironing and cutting all of the material for the whole quilt.

    I know I am a perfectionist but I think there was more luck involved than anything.

    Here is what I have been able to do today while I was blowing some steam off from the pair of Deuces. I was able to cut the strips I sewn last night and made my 4 patch blocks and squared them up.

    I might get back out there or I might not depends on how I feel a little later on.

    Now for the Assembly

    Actually is a rose color but my camera didnt pick the colors up right. Must be because of the gold light coming through the window.

    Or are you talking about the curtains? Yes they are a pink, orange, and purple that goes with my "Paprika" colored walls.
