    Mary!!!!! This is fantastic! Your center is adorable and the color contrast of the rest of the pieces is just great. You are quite the inspiration!

    How do you get your stitches so invisible?!? I can barely see them! This is my first time paper piecing (I'm doing the block party too) and you can obviously see the stitches. Does it come with practice? Or is there a secret?

    Love the fussy cut center!

    Unusual blocks and so very interesting. Is the center from a flour sack or a fabric printed with that design on it?
