Paper piecing does take some getting used to and I still make a few boo-boos along the way.quilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02054912539054163241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326992265414509381.post-17388086096353146292013-01-22T16:40:18.530-05:002013-01-22T16:40:18.530-05:00Hey your block turned out well, especially conside...Hey your block turned out well, especially considering it's your first foray into paper piecing (love the bird cage print!). It's definitely one of those techniques that can take a bit to get the hang of. <br /><br />I still sometimes try to piece fabrics too small for the section. Like Ali, I just add in an extra piece and have an extra seam ;) I'd prefer an extra seam to unpicking hehe! <br /><br />You're right - pp is great for using up scraps (and also making them!!). I'm glad you like the BoM series!

I don't think you'd notice except for close up if you do that in that corner, if you plan on quilting your final project!<br /><br />Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12495709613649753195noreply@blogger.com
