This is a quilt using the "no more tears" paper piecing tecnique from a class I took with David Sirota at the Vermont Quilt Show in June 2026. Love this technique - no mess!. The quilt measures about 48" square. I used the Skewed Blocks quilt design from Karen of Wildflower Quilting. I used almost all of the leftover fat quarters pieces for the binding.

I wish I had not used the silver thread on the red petals but everywhere else it blends in nicely. This is about 20 inches square.
