    You are very bad for my mental health..but in a good! You are quite inspiring, and I want to try so many of the things you post! I'd like to try this, but have never paper-pieced before. I think I can manage it, but have one question: do you use regular copy paper?

    Thanks for sharing these sweet little flowers!

    This design could surely be adapted for any season or occasion. What a simple method you have devised! I am going to give this one a whirl.

    I love that block, Wagon Wheels I think from memory. I made a few orphan ones awhile back. It looks great in Christmas colours. Your method for the templates is very easy looking.

    I do not have the tutorial for this block online, It is in QUILT ALMANAC 12012 issue (festive cheers) and
    a same block in different colors , in QUILT magazine, AUG/SEPT 2012 Picadilly Circus quilt. You can see if Jackie at Canton Village quilt works still has copies in her shop.
