Very pretty. I adore paper piecing! It makes all of my projects come out dang near perfectly! of course it took me ten years to figure out how to paper piece. Sometimes I think I'm dyslexic!!!

I have just started pp with the 2011 Star BOMs - I really like the technique but oh that mess! My waste basket seems to spit out those little pieces of paper. lol
When I was a child, my mother often said, "If you don't come home dirty, you didn't have any fun"!

Didn't think it would take all day and make such a mess, so glad to finish one block. Think I will be making this project smaller than first thought.

Love it!!

Yes it is worth it. It is pretty. When I start something new, the first on always take the longest and is the most messy one. Need a scrap catcher.
