Spike Your English BOM

Well, let's get this blog started with some preliminary pictures about what I've been quilting in the past several months.

This is the most recent in a series of paper pieced blocks that I've been working on.  I'm a member of the QuiltingBoard.com website. The members organize Block of the Month (BOM) sew alongs and this BOM is all about designs from Quilting On The Square. The program is called "Spike Your English" referring to English paper piecing.

I find I really enjoy paper piecing and am getting better and better at it.  The key is careful, careful seams allowances and pressing the heck out of the pieces as they're added.
