Hello Everyone,
The past couple of weeks I have been whittling away at a gaggle of paper pieced geese. They are for my Glacier Star quilt that I posted about here.
These are all paper pieced from Judy Niemeyer's pattern. As many of you know, I adore paper piecing and her patterns! These are fun because they are curved.
They are then joined to these quarter circles.
Like so and...
like so. I am in love! These will be inset in the main "lone star" portion of the quilt. You can see the main portion in this post here.
Look at what they look like in a circle, very cool!
If you like Judy's patterns you can find many of them in my shop by clicking here.
P.S. For 3 days only ALL Westminster Fabrics and Batiks are on sale for $7.95 per yard. We are going to market this week and need to make room for all the new fabric that we will come back with.
Click here to begin shopping!
Until Next Time...

Wow, those look difficult and you make it all sound like so much fun! I now want to try paper piecing! I'm going to the shop to check out some of those patterns.

These are stunning!
I love the geese set in a circular pattern. These are spectacular. Got room in your suitcase for a stowaway to Market? :o)

Wow, those are just beautiful. I really think it is time that I get over my fear of foundation paper piecing!
This is absolutely gorgeous! I agree with Heather that I too need to get over my foundation piecing aversion!
How do you manage stitching the curves? They still are scary. The colors you chose BEEE u tiful!!

Wow, I clicked on the link and those quilts are gorgeous! I haven't done any paper piecing in a while and now I'm getting itchy for it. Maybe in January, lol.
Beautiful work Jackie! I'm looking forward for the class you're going to teach with the Judy Niemeyer pattern for Hearthside.
Also, congratulations on being published in Quilt magazine!
