    Great job! Paper piecing has never been a technique that is easy for me. Usually, by the time I get one right, half a dozen rejects are scattered around me, and my nerves are shot.

    Looks great! Good for you to stick with it and finish the pieces. It does take some practice, but gets easier as you do it, like anything, there is a learning curve!

    The "A" gave me a bit of an issue. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to close the top section! Everytime I did, it bunched up. I ended up taking it apart and putting it back together three times! I finally just stuck a piece of the same fabric in there to close the gap, but I still ended up an inch short in length compared to the other ones...so that is why the top of the "A" looks all funky doodle...because I had to make it longer to match...just don't look too closely...okay? :shock:
