Before I start this fortnight's challenge, I'd like to say how much I appreciate the support we're getting from all you guys out there.  We keep getting really positive comments and the publicity your posts are giving us is great. Thank you all so much.

"The Stamping Boutique is dedicated to quality products and original artwork. Our designers are chosen for their character and personality,as well as, their beautiful designs. We work hard to give you our very best. Thank you so much for having us as your sponsor this week."

The images over in her shop are absolutely wonderful so please be sure to pop over and have a look around.


The challenge this time is to use the technique of Paper Piecing and for anyone who needs some pointers, the girls on the Design Team have found some tutorials on the web.  Have a look at


Please remember that these are not the work of any members of this blog and I would like to acknowledge and thank the individuals for their contribution.

  5. Well, I tried to do a "male" card - pieced - but not near as fancy or nice as the ones I've seen posted here! I think I need lots and lots of practice!
