One block........

I did one paper pieced melon shape yesterday.  I have Karen Stone's book too and this quilt is in it.  There are diagrams for the paper piecing in the book but not in the pattern.  I used my Add a Quarter rulers for trimming the fabric.
I cut some corners of the blocks and more strips for the paper piecing while I watched a couple episodes of the Season 2 of Downton Abbey.  I finally got it from the library.  There are 102 on the list following me who want to see it.
I sewed the corners onto that first block but haven't pressed it yet.
