Paper Piecing

I think I've got paper piecing down pat.
I was worried about trying this technique.
 this was my first attempt at paper piecing
 this flower is my second attempt
 this house was my 3rd attempt, I love the perfect-ness of the lines, it just makes me smile
 this is my 4th attempt at paper piecing
I'd say I've got it down pat, would you?
close up,
the mittens each have 17 pieces, WOW
I was worried about this pattern,
I thought it was bigger when I got it, I didn't pay attention to size.
This hat-scarf-mittens hanging will go to live in San Jose, CA
It looks a bit wonky on it's right side, but it's not.

I think now that i've learned paper piecing, I'll do my Farmer's Wife blocks paper pieced.
Now I'm just worried about curved pieces in those blocks.  eeekkkk

    WARNING: Paper piecing is addicting! I love it. Look at my blog a couple of days ago where I show a sample of what I am working on with 126 pieces!
    Happy piecing!
