This week marks the start of my next paper piecing adventure. It took me a little while to choose my colour palette for this quilt and in the end I wanted to do something softer. So without further ado here is the first block of the series…
The block is the September block from Don’t Call Me Betsy’s “Lucky Star BOM” program. I subscribed to this series at the beginning of the year and have made a few of the blocks over the year, including for my Paper piecing Boston Blocks. They are great patterns and the fun thing is if you sign up for the BOM program now you get January to September immediately. None of the waiting month by month that I had to do – have I mentioned I am not overly patient!
This pattern is an easy 44 pieces and I love the pin wheel in the center. I hope you like the new palette and will join me next week for the block number 2.

Nice block! Such carefully chosen colors – very pretty!
So gorgeous Cath…….glad you have a new paper pid ce block to share with us. You make my day. Thanks for the inspiration.
cath, i just can’t get over how much i love all of your color palettes! this one is going to be stunning!
Thanks Ashley. My husband challenged me to do something different – not so loud and bright. This was my response.
Yes, the pin wheel in the Center is very sweet and makes the block more fantastic!
The palette is gorgeous! It’s still so fresh and modern, without being super-duper bright. The lilac-y pinks are particularly lovely.
It’s a beautiful block! I love the colors.
I finally tried my first paper piecing this morning and I. Am. Hooked. Thanks for posting such amazing pictures and inspiring me to get off my bum and do it!
Oh paper piecing really is fun. I do suggest finding/training some one to help you remove the paper. It is the only bit about pp I don’t really get excited about.
