    my husband would love this, I am mesmerized by it, thanks for posting it. I love paper pieced quilts, but I have never done them but it is something I intend to learn. I do mostly quilt as you go quilts or it is known as Cotton Theory.

    Wow! That looks tough with all of those tiny angles. Is there a lot of waste in PP?

    Hi: thank you for your comments. There was a little waste, at first, but then I learned some techniques, that helped. There were Sections A thru Z, and within each section & putting each section in a baggie, marking them with a marker, made it easier. and sewing 2 longated, pieces together, I could use them in various sections, when the 2 fabrics came together. Also, making a legion board of your various fabrics and attaching with tape, made it easier. Some things were just not in the small print. Hope you enjoy...It is a Labor of love.......ih

    Just beautiful. I am not at the level yet. Can't wait until I am. There are always people who feel the need to one up others. Lack of self esteem maybe. Don't pay attention. Your QB friends appreciate a great job.m
