Paper Piecing my Boat

I designed this sailboat paper piecing pattern recently:


But I hadn't gotten a chance to blog about the prototype block! Here it is my scrappy sailboat:




This will be the centerpiece of a baby quilt that is predominantly blue and red with sailboat novelty fabric in those colors as well.

But I think this block would make a great lap quilt too if I made nine of them for one quilt. I bought some sky yardage yesterday, so maybe that is what I'll do with it ?!
