    I did the paper piecing and it turned out really bad. Throw away the second half of the piecing pattern and repeat the top half a second time. It works out better.
    Thank you violetsfarm, I'll try that!

    Mirabelle your Spider Web is spectacular - did you paper piece it???

    Here's the spool. Boy, I have to slow down! My points and seams aren't lining up quite right. I have to "get my head" back into this again. LOL

    Yes JeanieG I did paper piece this one, I have been drawing up my own blocks and it seems to have worked for me so far. I pieced 2 sections together then pieced them into 4, then the 4 sections together across the centre. I also pressed my centre seam flat and starched it. Lays nice and flat.
