As you can see it still requires quilting & binding etc. Let me know what you think.

You did good. Quite an undertaking for your first pp, Your cat will be very lucky to have a special pillow.

I took one of Carol Doak's classes and she is the best in my book. Fun to PP with her instructions. She has a web site you can get information from. Its www.caroldoak.com Marge

Hi,

I just learned to paper piece today as my friend showed me at her house. She gave me a bag of scraps so I came home and made my 1st paper piece block. I am posting a picture of it!

I had to have hands on help when my second pp'ed block was a birds in flight. I didn't know to move the triangles on either side down so I didn't loose my seam allowance on the sides. But once I was shown that I was on my way. Next I want to learn how to paper piece around curves.
