January Blocks - do. Good Stitches

For this months blocks, we did the Rocky Road to Kansas block.  (tutorial and template here)

This was my first time actually attempting paper piecing.  This is why I love this group, it makes me try new stuff, but only requires two blocks...so it's not an intimidating commitment.

Plus, this time fabric scraps were donated from Beth at Stash Fabrics.  Thank you!

Block one I used a white background.

Block two I used a Kona solid - Ash as the background
  
 
Since this was the first attempt....the points aren't perfect....but with all the scrappy goodness, you don't notice.
