So happy to see that I'm among so many that agree paper piecing IS another technique of quilting, and I too love the precision, especially when you have really small pieces. Kelly, you do some awesome paper piecing, love seeing pics of everyone's projects!!!!

I LOVE paper piecing...in fact my avatar is a queen sized PP quilt, pattern by Valori Wells of Sisters, OR. I just wouldn't try NY Beauty blocks any other way.
Re: the garden quilt. That is the FIRST paper pieced pattern I ever did! Believe it was in a magazine. My husband made a frame for it with 100 year old barn wood, and it is hanging in our family room.

I love paper piecing, but have been afraid to try it ... someone mentioned an 8-year old granddaughter paper piecing ... surely, I can do it too ... as soon as I figure out, how to get started, I am going to try it too.

Here is where I posted my pictures to the group.....

Marcia....I love the precision too!!! I would never be able to make sure perfect points with template piecing....I'm just not that good!
Hugs!!!
Here is the last one I did.....
I still need to make it into a hexagon and quilt it!

I love the colors you picked...just beautiful. What pattern is this from? I love paper piecing...still new at it but think I'm ready to tackle something more complicated. I have a pineapple pattern here (MH designs) that I think I'll do next. Thanks for sharing some of your projects!
I love jig saw puzzles...paper piecing is a bit like that to me...fun to see the design come together.
:-D :-D :-D :-D :D :wink: :wink: :wink:
