    I finished up my wall hanging this evening. It's made with Civil War reproduction fabrics using Deb Karasik's "Ringo Star" pattern. She came last month to our guild to do a paper piecing class using this pattern, so I did the first couple of blocks in her class and then finished it up on my own. I really like doing paper piecing, it's amazing the accuracy it gives! :)

    That gorgeous!! Are those fabrics from your last shopping spree when you showed us all those CW prints? If so, they look beautiful in your quilt.
