geese in a circle

For The Pillow Talk Swap I decided on the geese in a circle; a great tutorial found here. It was my second time paper piecing, and by the end of the block I really was getting it down, and not having to think through each step. I really am beginning to LOVE paper piecing. Now I just need to add a border and then decide how I want to quilt it. I sure hope my partner likes it!!


Wishing you a fantastic Friday!!

    Can't wait to see how you quilt it! I have this as a center to a small kid lap quilt and I'm not sure how I'm going to quilt it either, but my top stitching skills are slim.

    Wow, that is gorgeous! I'm still afraid to try paper piecing since I still don't own a machine.

    I love to sew my own cushions, too but unfortunately I still consider myself as a beginner when it comes to sewing.
    It looks lovely, great job!

    What fabrics are those?! I've been looking for the blue and orange (with little white leaves) and I don't even know what line they're from.
