They do it completely different and I was wondering how it works. I need to download one of those to do next.

The colored zebras look like the zebras on the stripped gum I used to get when I was a kid. I love the flame flower. Paper piecing is a trial. I have done a lot of it. Don't worry about trying to to save fabric. If you cut the piece big, sew it, and then trim it, you can use it again and again. Like you said just keep trying. You will get there.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10317229252365458067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900320065722105446.post-86802606359302799602011-09-07T18:26:59.305-07:002011-09-07T18:26:59.305-07:00Take a deep breathe and dont give up on the paper ...Take a deep breathe and dont give up on the paper piecing.

Our anniversary is coming up so I may want to go see it this Sat.!<br /><br />Great looking hexies, yours look so neat/tidy and FLAT!!! I finally prepped more so I could add to my ever slowly growing pile!!<br /><br />As for the paper piecing, well, it's almost a 'mind' thing than anything else. It reminds me of trying to sew backwards, but I LOVE doing it. I think you have the right idea though...just walk away and take a break then come back to it! You'll get it!!Browndirtcottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12259939643695340109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900320065722105446.post-44613805052909088972011-09-07T14:00:26.226-07:002011-09-07T14:00:26.226-07:00Lots of fabulous sewing again, I adore your OFW ze...Lots of fabulous sewing again, I adore your OFW zebra hexie, I think it is one of the cutest flowers I've ever seen.<br />I listed to The Help as an audio book and enjoyed it so much.
