I remove the paper while watching Netflix movies.

I made one last year that went together quick--it was the quilting that took the most time, of course.AnnieOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619125197850685345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-63550695800149570422011-06-22T12:23:28.948-07:002011-06-22T12:23:28.948-07:00Removing that paper is always a pain but me doing ...Removing that paper is always a pain but me doing miniatures makes less of it I guess. You are right when you can distract yourself from how much time it takes though - TV or audio books are good for that.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15327282482525374694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-85688972618090897702011-06-22T08:50:24.522-07:002011-06-22T08:50:24.522-07:00I'm not a big fan of paper-piecing and the pap...I'm not a big fan of paper-piecing and the paper removal is one of the reasons!!

When I did my log cabin I knew it would drive me nuts so I removed the paper as I attached each row. What a mess all those paper nits are too!Vicki Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929340703066037054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-72518368325616806782011-06-22T07:01:44.187-07:002011-06-22T07:01:44.187-07:00You look so CUTE in your little corner, like a lit...You look so CUTE in your little corner, like a little girl :D. I love the Kids quilt---I'm going to try machine quilting one of these days. :) I've actually been piecing again *gasp* so I might some day HAVE a top to quilt. LOL <br /><br />I was thinking about you yesterday afternoon while watching the weather channel. Those have been ferocious storms and I was hoping that all was safe in your world.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10386388066709376768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-11682141963245544562011-06-22T06:32:59.453-07:002011-06-22T06:32:59.453-07:00I sure agree with you about quilting swirls being ...I sure agree with you about quilting swirls being easier than straight (hopefully) lines! Thanks to you, I am doing more quilting and improving little by little. I'm getting more confident too! I'm working on a paper piecing project between other things. I've shown it a couple times and I hope to finish it this year. I like the way you are using the string blocks for the border. Looks great!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11912222251238739813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-79327908646824128742011-06-21T21:16:00.933-07:002011-06-21T21:16:00.933-07:00How cute - you have a nest!!

Now, I find it tedious which is probably why I don't like to paper piece.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296050573667055406noreply@blogger.com
