This wonderful image from Phindy's Place is called Contentment and it describes my state of mind right now. The challenge this week at Phindy's Place Challenge Blog is to make a card using one of Phindy's images and do some paper piecing. When I finished my card, I was quite contented with the result.
By the way, if you don't have a Phindy image and want to enter this challenge, this is a great time to go shopping for one because Phindy is having an End of Summer Sale. Check out the store for all the details and start shopping. I can't wait to see your wonderful paper-pieced card.
