How I Learned to Paper Piece

My first attempt at paper piecing was with this quilt, called "Mrs. Cleveland's Choice", a block-of-the-month quilt from Our Gathering Place in Montoursville, PA back in 2004. Although I had never done any paper piecing before this, I loved the sample hanging in the shop so much that I just dove right in.

I was hooked! Thankfully, the instructions provided with this BOM were excellent, so I learned the basics of paper piecing with no trouble at all and the results amazed me. I couldn't believe how accurate my points were. After this one, I signed up for 2 more paper-pieced BOM's at the shop, also using batik fabrics. You'll see pictures of those at a later date...
