Growing A Rose and Star.....

I love attaching the in between bits to the Rose and Star.  English Paper Piecing is so satisfying...




This is the first time I have put a quilt together with English Paper Piecing....



Very satisfying....
The chest is a new 'old' find....for my youngest daughter {Mary Mc} who is sprucing up her sister's old room and making it her own....


Hope you are having a good Tuesday....I will leave you with one more lovely shot of a cutie pup....Flanders Matilda

  11. That is such an interesting quilt. Where can I find instructions on that type of english paper piecing where all the pieces are not just hexagons? Thank you!
