The base of this block is all English Paper pieced, but the two triangles on the corners are appliqued. It took me 1.5 hours to sew those two on last night. It didn't help that I forgot to take the paper out the first time around. It appears that the applique shapes which are small and angular are most troublesome to me, but I can see the attraction of appliqueing larger, smoother shaped pieces.
Still orange.

I also had trouble appliquing the triangles and didn't like the way they looked when I was finished. I removed them and added circles using Karen Buckleys perfect circles. My quilt, my way!
I had trouble with those pesky triangles too. Yours are perfect!
