Un-Stuck

In my last post, I was stuck on two projects.... yes, I have two projects going.

.... ah...ok, I confess... I have a lot of projects going. 
I usually have a "main" project and then a smattering of things I work on when the mood strikes.
But in my own defense.... I'm not alone (you know who you are.)

Two of these, a baby quilt for a niece, and a paper piece project I've been dinking around with for a year, are the two I was stuck on.  I took an "open sew" class at Piecemakers (my local quilt shop) and got help from the instructor.



I'm happy and proud to say... the baby quilt is FINISHED and at the quilter.  YEAH!!!






















The paper piece project is also back on track.
It has a way to go before it is an actual quilt.  (I need 30 of these bad boys.  I have 13.)



 This is the third time I've had to ask for help with this paper piecing block.  So, now I'm making at least one every single night (that I sew) so I will not forget! 

TIP:  When I got help from Lorene at Piecemakers, this time I used my phone to take pictures of the steps.  It was truly helpful.  Give it a try.

 The moral of this story is "slow and steady wins the race."   So, keep at it.
