Love your choice (page 9)- the center seems to open like a blossom - very nice.

Sooo - hopefully attempt number 4 will be a success!

Here is number 4 - my first ever paper pieced block!
What fun!!

I loved learning to paper piece - glad your star pushed me to try!






Great work! I feel bad because so many had problems. I hope everyone keeps trying because paperpiecing is probably as close as one can get to perfect. :hunf: :XD:

Here's my star. I didn't really know what it was going to look like until it was done and it did not look at all like what I envisioned. Anyway, it was a nice surprise. I think I really appreciate everyone's efforts even more after I've gone through making one and experience, first hand, the difficulties encountered, haha.

Your fabric choices really make the star shapes stand out. Beautiful!
