Happiness is . . .

. . . a free Friday, all to myself, to sew!
After sewing a few blocks together this morning,
I remembered that snow makes an excellent backdrop for fabric photos!
(eeekkk!!! just realized I need to re-do the one on the right, the right side is reversed!)
These are the first blocks in the Sister's Ten BOM series;
fabrics are Kate Spain's Central Park.

 I'm also loving Elizabeth's Lucky Stars Paper Piecing block of the month series!
 Above is the practice block;
below is the January block.
After I finished the 12" block, I realized that I had enough scraps to make the smaller sized block, too.  How great is that?!

 Linking up to Friday Felicities!

    Ooh, the paper-pieced blocks are lovely! I keep telling myself I'm going to follow along a BOM series, but I always manage to forget. Maybe this is the year I jump on the train.
