After the Saturday paper piecing class I had such a great desire to sew on the units I was using as the teaching lesson. I had only sewn two seams to demonstrate the technique to my students. I then turned them loose and was like a bee flitting to each quilter answering questions and helping with machine issues.
I now totally understand why Our Bonnie Hunter sews in her hotel room after teaching. Watching others sew while you are teaching is a bit frustrating.
I only spent a few minutes and I had the block units done. After feeding DH I then sewed the units together.
With the following results:
Below are the units...I love the spotlight that little Ikea lamp produces.
Today I am mindlessly sewing more hourglass units.
This time I am using browns and neutrals. I had these already cut and just sitting in this little container gathering dust. I am about halfway through the sewing. My goal is 500 units.
And I am clipping my little dog ears as usual!
I love those EZ Angle rulers. This unit is made with the Companion Angle ruler cut from 1 1/2" strips.

I just love the pink and gray star block. Is there a pattern for this somewhere?
