I assumed the task of putting it all together since I only made one block. The pieced patterns were chosen randomly, so I ignored pattern completely, and concentrated on giving the colors a pleasing balance.
I wanted to use up the leftover puzzle fabric, but I thought a visual break was needed between the blocks and the border. Nothing stops the eye like red, so a bright red inner border was born.
There's my lone card trick block in the bottom row - took forever! Others liked this particular paper-piecing method, but I was not a fan. It did, however, give nice results.
Everyone did a terrific job on their blocks, and I don't think we've ever created a more colorful quilt!
Some little kid is going to really love this bright, cheery quilt!

What a cheerful quilt. I am taking Carol Doak's paper piecing class on Craftsy. Just started it. Hopefully it will get me to be a better paper piecer.
It did turn out beautiful. I am so proud of our effort.
so colourful and I am sure children will love it, adults too
That's a very pretty quilt. I like the different kinds of blocks and the bright colors. The puzzle fabric is so cute! I have never seen that fabric before.
