Paper Piecing Fun


I had so much fun with my last paper pieced block for my Star Bright Quilt. (that one was green) I had to make more.  The quilt needs 6 different colors and Green was first, Now I have some purple and orange blocks done.


I am so surprised that it took me so long to get serious and try paper piecing.  Now that i have 15 blocks made (I made 5 of each block so far).  I decided that I could make even more paper pieced items.


So after 15 blocks I had to try something different.  I pulled up EQ7 and created me a new block.  In EQ7 I called it spines.  I am not sure if that is going to stick as its name but for now that is what I will call it.


I had fun making this block it is 7 inch finished I made 4 of them and in a few days I will show you the completed mini quilt.


Here is one block completed.

  4. Your blocks look great. At my house, that's known as paper piecing torture, however.
