Here's my first attempt at a paper pieced block after taking Carol Doak's workshop last Saturday. It is Dear Jane block, G-2 Mohawk Trail...isn't it pretty? The corners and points all match up pretty well and it even came out perfectly square and to the right size, so why doesn't it look like the block in the picture? Someone forgot to click the mirror image button before printing the pattern! It is an interesting block as it is, even if it isn't right, so it may make it's way into the quilt, but I will also make another one the way it is supposed to be.

The Importance Of "Mirror Image"
