The corners of the block were paper-pieced. Each section had a diamond, with the four triangles added to make the square.

I pieced the center. Curved piecing seemed preferable to appliqueing at the time. But after sewing it, I think next time I'll go with applique. I think some background fabric around the outside of the applique would look better than this pieced version.

Block #6 completed, I'm still not great at curved piecing. I almost decided to applique it, but that seemed even harder. Those tiny curved pieces were quite a challenge. A larger curve is much easier to piece!

Here's my 5th block. It was nice and straight-forward, and I paper-pieced it. Not perfect, but not bad. The fabric color is more coral-colored in real life, though it does have some pink.
