I-9

This block (Chase A Myth) is paper pieced in three sections. I redrew the pattern because I wanted 90 degree angles on the large triangles. The block has 41 pieces.

A-5

Okay, new attempt! (Cathie´s Campfire) 29 pieces. Pedantic as I am I think paper piecing will work fine for me. Lines, angles and corners become fine and precise.

C-1

Did my very first paper pieced block yesterday. Took an easy one and tought it would be a piece of cake, and yes, it was, but something went wrong......Can you find "the error" ? (Trooper Green´s Badge) 13 pieces.

M-1

Yes, this is fun! My third block, M-1 (Dogwood Days) was a little bit tricky and I did some changes (from the book) so that I would get the corners to fit the central block. Machine pieced, 29 pieces.

Have a nice day!

B-10

It´s done! My first Dear Jane block. I loved piecing it. My B-10 (Jud´s Trophy) has 27 pieces because I did the centerpiece in one instead of three. Now there is just 224 more to go... I´m not sure I´m going to use these  blocks for my "baby jane". I haven´t yet decided what color I want. If I can´t decide, I will go for the original colors. Time will tell.
