Make it Monday Paper Piecing




Melissa Phillips has a great video on Paper Piecing today, and a beautiful card that she made!


 Hi ,another quick post for Make it Monday... Paper Piecing.  Most of you know how much I love paper piecing, and that I find it very relaxing. So why not give it a try and check out the MIM video. I used an older set from Papertrey Ink for this one…. Delightful Dahlia, and some old PTI patterned paper and a bit of new from a craft store. I had the glitter hearts leftover from another MIM challenge. I hope you have a wonderful week ! 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
