Sawtooth Borders

I like the look of a sawtooth surrounding a border, it's just the hassle of making them.
This time I cut all the triangles first and made them, paper-piecing, with freezer paper and this not only made them easier to do but much quicker.
With the blocks in place and the sawtooth attached it's on to the next round.







I'm off for a three day retreat next week so hopefully more to show after it.
