This is what I love about paper piecing. The scraps, the little piles, & bits of paper all over. Pulling bits & pcs. out of my wicker picnic basket full of scraps I used to throw away.
I love your star.

You did a great job for your first time. I had hoped to make my block also this weekend but have been dealing with a lot of pain in my back and neck. Hopefully I will be able to get it done by next weekend. I hope my first attempt at paper piecing turns out as well as yours did.

I now have 5 #2 sections and no #4 section.....I'm going to go take a nap. I'll try again later. Huggies, Fay

Ahhhh, now I feel better, at least I am not the only one having issues with it. LOL Maybe a nap is what I need too. Chin up Fay, I'm pulling my hair out too. Well, I'm not cuz it's thin enough already, but I'm definitely getting a headache over this. LOL Huggggggs for Fay, and smilesssss for us all.

Here is a Candlequilter Star block that Jo Belmont made and sent to me. The colors are a really nice light green great for a summertime theme.

Thank you so very much Jo!
