Beautiful and the sparkly fabric is just the right touch. How big is the block?

Trying pinning and basting. Then open it and if it's not quite right you don't have to unsew the tiny stitches. If it's ok, just stitch right over it with your smaller stitches.

Perfecto!! havent really tried paper piecing yet, but intend on doing so. Do you use a special kind of paper or could one just use regular copier paper. Thank you and good luck with your class.

Many people just use regular copy paper. I use Carol Doak's foundation paper. You can find it on her website, wwwcaroldoak.com
