This is my entry...albeit unfinished. I have plans to make this the flap for a messenger bag for my daughter. I really have my doubts that I will complete the bag in time for the challenge deadline and I really don't want to rush this project. (I have lots of fun details planned Grin)

This is a paper pieced fairy of my own design. I designed it a few months ago and this challenge was the perfect push to try it out. The piece measures approx 10x10. It's too small for such a detailed piece I feel. It would come out smoother in a larger size such as 15x15 at least. But it was fun to do none the less!

I LOVE IT!!! I CANNOT for the life of me do paper piecing!!

You know, it took me like 4 attempts at a beginners pattern with full instructions for me to even figure out what the heck you are supposed to do LOL! Keep thinking about it and one day you'll have that glorious lightbulb moment. THEN, be forewarned - you...will...be...A DDICTED!!

Heh, that pattern is a doozy lemme tell ya! Definately not for beginners. This being my first run, I did find one spot that needs adjusting. Since my website isn't completed yet, if you're interested, please pm me Wink

Thanks so much for your compliments!! And good luck to you with your entries!
