You are doing a great job. Just watch your points and you'll be fine. Show us when you get it together.

I'm not sure what PP stands for, but I found the pattern online for free, it was the pattern my husband liked best from the choices I gave him for our bed. I tried posting it, but it was edited out as apparently it was copy-written, oops!

And for all curious, you bet I'll post a pic when I'm done!!!
You could give us the name of the pattern and we can look it up ourselves. I'm curious too! I love this pattern!

PP stands for paper piecing. I think that would make a great paper pieced block.

Triangles that fit into each other always scare me but it looks like you're on your way to a beautiful quilt!!

I agree with just about everyone on here - I think it is coming together nicely, I think you've done the hardest part, I love the pattern and fabric!

Don't worry - there are always way to make it work!

I think it looks adorable so far!

I think often 'we' talk ourself out of challenges due to fear of failure. The block looks wonderful and unless we are challenged we will never feel the wonderful emotion of success! You go girl!

That is absolutely true about the fussy cuts. I would have half of them upside down. Great job. That quilt will be so darn cute!
