First I would like to thank everyone for their advice, support and encouragement when I "cried for help".

I read every suggestion and have stored away the advice to use as I progress with my paper piecing projects.

I did purchase the "add a quarter" ruler. I pin sew when in doubt of coverage. I measure, measure and measure my pieces. I write those measurements on an extra pattern so I can't forget them. I use a very see-through paper so I can always know I am getting my first fabrics set correctly!

I seem to be a bit twisted on the right side but am very happy with how this turned out!

PP lets us do awesome work. One of the first quilts I did was PP. I haven't done any for a while. I need to get back to it. Thanks for the inspiration!:)
