lil fox- my first paper piecing

Wow, I feel so proud of myself for finishing this little guy. You really need to be in a good mood to tackle paper piecing. I was flipping the fabric in all sorts of directions and having to unpick constantly after having a stressful week of planning a craft evening. Once I overcame a piece that I was stuck on for ages, the rest of it seemed to go quickly. Now I just need to tackle a hundred more paper piecing patterns and I will have the technique down. You can get this paper pattern here
I am not sure what I am going to do with the little fox now.. any ideas?

I think this is so cool. It would look really cool as the front panel of an overnight/tote bag or just quilted as it is and it could become a wall hanging.
I am totally inspired.

Or it would make an awesome cushion cover, just add a border.

I have seen it as a cushion cover at stitch bird and it looked great.. I think I might do some more paper piecing blocks and make a random quilt.
