Looking forward to part 2. However, sometime could you do a show on paper piecing for a strip type quilt block. Thanks. Love your show. Never miss them.

Where can I find the pattern for this paper piecing block so that I can sew along with the next episode? I love the wonkiness of that pattern. It will make an intriguing quilt.

Great job explaining, Mary! I have done lots of foundation piecing, graduating from large pieces to tiny ones, and you make it easy to explain to my beginning students. Thanks

One of the important things about paper piecing that I found out the hard way, was to be sure of the accuracy of your foundation pattern, especially if you hand trace the pattern. I did a F&P small pinwheel wall hanging where you had to sew small sections together, and I learned that my pattern was off just a smidge and that lead to nothing but frustration. When I corrected the error, it was a breeze
