Paper pieced utensils-a test block

Kristy from the Quiet Play blog let me test this cute paper pieced block for her. She has the sweetest retro (and other) paper piecing patterns in her Craftsy store. I had a lot of fun making this, and actually made two, but this one turned out the best. Paper piecing is fun and there are so many cute designs available. I love how it turned out, and I may have to get a few of the companion blocks and make something for my kitchen wall. These fabrics are all from my stash (which is one thing I love about paper piecing-I can use up scraps on them)

That is so cute! I have a friend who sews and she has taught me a little and gave me her old machine...but I still find it intimidating!

oooooo so very cool. That'd be a neat piece to hang in the kitchen. Very vintage and retro - at the same time.
