I came across a tutorial for paper piecing and since I have wanted to try the technique for a while I thought I would just go for it.
Pattern
The scrappy heart pattern (pdf) can be downloaded from the Sewing Mamas website. You will need to log in to download the pattern.
Paper piecing tutorial
You can supplement the paper piecing tutorial by Vanessa with this Youtube video tutorial.
The finished block is 7 1/2 inches square.
Free motion quilting
I usually stipple quilt my quilts but I decided to try something new.
