Today is the day to officially post my blocks for During Quiet Times Texting While Sewing Contest! I am a beginner at paper piecing, but have fallen in love with all that you can make with it. And I can't believe how imaginative people are with their paper pieced designs! Go on over to look at all of the beautiful work!
The contest guidelines were to make 12 inch blocks, incorporating text fabric in creative ways.
I knew what I wanted to make as soon as I saw this pretty fabric on Fabric.com.
It was called French Post Cream by Michael Miller. I loved the romantic colors and style of it immediately. Then I remembered seeing a rosebud paper pieced pattern online. It was a design by Cat Magraith, which I enlarged.
I want to make it a mini wall hanging someday soon.
I had so much fun making this block! Part 2 to follow....
