Paper Piecing Part Finished

The other night,

while listening to a book on my iPad,

I removed the papers from the back of the

Paper pieced stars.

Three Hours.

That's how long it took.

And this is why I don't enjoy paper piecing.

I do have to say, though...

The stars are precise and look pretty cool.

It was worth the effort.

 I decided to make a runner with these stars,

so framed them in a navy blue solid

with fuchsia corner stones. 

I'm going to look for a fabric with most of the colors

for a wider border.

 

   

There is no way I would have been able to

sew those thin pieces of fabric so precisely

without paper piecing.

The frustration and irritation fades

as I look at the final product. 

:)

Another project out of my cabinet and almost finished.

Happy Quilting!
