What are you most proud of?

I struggled a bit with this month's blocks. I have never done English Paper Piecing and was a bit intimidated by the process. Turned out not to be as difficult as I thought. I love the way my flower vase turned out, I was able to use my imagination and create something I love!

I love this too. I have a plan and it's a little different than those posted, BUT I am having a little trouble getting my perception of space right. Hope I get it done before December

I hadn't thought of that. I can picture it with alternating blocks of pieced fabrics. The pillow possibilities are endless too!!

Love it! This is the block I am now working on and decided to do a floral design also. But not quite sure exactly the final design yet. I love your vase, too.
