Time to work on Doll Quilt Swap 12

I've been thinking about this for a few weeks and here is my start:
 

One of the block options is the New York Star and it's time for me to make one! This paper piecing is getting addicting.

I'm working on the second circle tonight.

Hi Lurline, you seem to be having a stutter today!! Hey Mary, your New York star is looking fabulous! Paper Piecing is very addictive! xo

I agree, paper piecing is addicting! That block looks great, I may attempt a New York Beauty pillow.

You know why paper piecing can be addictive? It's because the blocks ccome out looking so perfect like yours. I love the fabric combo too.

Gorgeous. PP isn't only paper piecing but precision piecing. I love the results but not a fan of doing it.

Beautiful New York Fan block. Paper piecing is great, but as Stephanie said, I am not a fan of doing it. I often get the fabric backwards and end up with too much fabric on the wrong side and not enough to cover the spot that needs it!

Just look at those sharp points! Awesome paper piecing.

Gorgeous Mary. I only PP occasionally but when I see fabulous results like this I am tempted to plan a new project too.
