I printed out my pattern for paper piecing and EQ divided the block into 4 different parts...I did as you describe for stitching the pieces and then trimmed them all. Then I stitched the parts together and finally had my little star blocks. I then added squares to end up with 5 1/2" (unfinished) blocks which I stitched together. It took me over a week to do the border.

I absollutely love that software and never thought of trying the star in a paper piece pattern.

I've turned many a block from EQ into a paper pieced block. Good luck!

Looks gorgeous. Thanks for sharing, another idea to whet my appetite, was feeling a little jaded about quilting until I started reading on here today.

very nice. I love your ideas and isn't it wonderful how we can learn from each other and gather that creativity? Did you have to hunt hard to find the angel fabric?
